The only thing you can do is try and see what works, fren. Provide the incentive (or threat) for them to change. They not going to do it on their own.

Your government has declared war on you and wants to murder you and take all of your assets. The only question is: "Are you going to fight, or not?"

A non outwardly confrontational letter may be the best way to push back on them to avoid them targeting you. If you wish, you may make a payment along with letter, and then ask for a refund later if needed. Sometimes a portion of the "payment due" like 10% will suffice as a "goodwill deposit" to keep them from targeting you aggressively.

Think of them as local mafia boss trying to extract "his cut". They know that if they push too hard they end up in a neighborhood mafia civil war, so the smart ones will recognize the limits of how hard they can squeeze when seeing this sort of pushback.
