Doesn't work that way here. The tax department already has a copy of all these records. The company just lost their copy. So now that tax department can claim anything they want :)

Also I was not an employee. If I was, then I might have some obligation to do something. However these were former clients who simply didn't pay their bills (so... not even clients). So no contractual agreement existed between them and me -- for a contract to be valid, it has to include due consideration (e.g. a payment received in return for some service). Since I was never paid, no valid contract existed.
