Nassau double-billed 842+ Homes & even a Taxexempt Church then sold to Lien Investors

Has anyone heard what's going on in that County on Long Island?

Last year it was 'just' 842 homes that were double-billed last-minute as much as 62% extra causing a mayhem of erroneous delinquencies through 2022 where the Treasurer recently pocketed millions from quickly selling off tax liens created by the inflated bills  this February.

It even billed a tax-exempt Nassau parish erroneously a 2nd year in a row for another half million in property taxes despite their grieving the first year's error, which seems took over a year to finally reverse the bill which added up to over a million dollars in erroneous taxes!

Apparently its a lucrative investment though, but risky cause when the tax liens are released after correction, the lien buyers don't get their money back do they? Well at least in WA but I don't know about NY do they have simiar statute:
