Federal Agency Accused Me Of Crime But Says They Won't Do Anything. Do I Take Any Action?

Card image cap

Location: U.S. A little ways back I imported something that had to go through an inspection station. I gathered all the right permits and made sure everything looked good on my end. I'm genuinely not sure what happened, but after inspecting my package one of the officers at the station contacted me and said someone misdirected something or another, basically something to do with where the package was sent or how it was sent I think? They said they wouldn't do anything but to not do it again and follow proper procedure next time. I told them I wasn't sure what they meant but I forwarded it to the seller as I figured it had something to do with them. Whatever the case may have been my package cleared inspection perfectly fine and was sent on to me. It's been a while since then and they've sent another message reiterating a crime was committed by "someone" (italicized in the email), and that the delivery co. sent "strong evidence it might have been you". They then ended it by saying any future attempts will be considered an active attempt at a violation/crime.

So... Do I do anything about this? Can I request the evidence? I'm still thrown for a loop as to what exactly they're on about. I don't even know what they're accusing me of doing at this point. Considering they've implied they're dropping the matter is it better to just let sleeping dogs lie? I just don't understand why they'd message me a second time long after everything.
