Crocodile Dundee Gunning for the IRS

Paul HoganPaul Hogan didn't become famous for tax evasion, but that might just put him back on the map.

The wacktor chose to challenge Australian tax authorities Friday to track him down in the U.S. after a report in the Australian National newspaper claimed he dodges taxes more than Wesley Snipes.

Hogan is fighting IRS involvement, saying the Australian officials are unlawfully trying to obtain banking records and other docs to bust him. But Croc Dundee is ready for the fight saying, ''I'll be arrested the minute I land on the shore, of course, but I have a gun; so be warned,'' he joked. Maybe not the best time to joke.

The Australian tax office does not comment on individual cases.

Paul, I know you think you're funny, but you're not. Telling them you gotta gun is very foolish. How to you think they're going to appoach you when you land in home? Can you say face plant and gun drawn with dogs.

Will these dumbazzez never learn? He may be kidding, but the IRS doesn't play. A SWAT team will probably meet him with their automatic weapons drawn. Not funny and not smart!
