You MUST include that in your income. There is a 99.9% possibility that if you don't you will receive a bill from the IRS that includes interest and penalties. If you itemize, you can write off $2000 in losses. If you don't itemize, you will just have to accept the fact that it is part of your income and you will be taxed on it with the rest of your income.
