Legal Question in Consumer Law in Iowa

I purchased a Mobile Home from my Grandmother in June 2007, for the amount of $2,000. The actual value would've been slightly higher but it needed quite a bit of work. I have a signed Bill of Sale stating the purchase price of $2,000 and also a signed Paid in Full Receipt. In this last month my Grandmother has gone on Title 19 and she needed to claim her assets from the past 5 years. My Grandmother and My Uncle(power of attorney for the last 4 weeks) stated to them- she sold her trailer for $9,000 and that she was only paid 900.00. All of which is not true. Now they want me to pay the difference of $8,100. I am wondering is this legal ??? Thank you in advance for any help in this matter.

Sounds like they have a problem and they want to make it yours for reasons I do not understand. They're the ones that are lying to the government, but what I don't understand is why they would do this. If you can explain that to me I might be able to give you a better idea of where you stand.
