The letter I received is a very legitimate looking form with a respond by date requesting $275 for a service to get a safety plan, however it makes it seem that it is a requirement from the government with official filing information for my business on it.

My LLC was sent a very official looking form to complete by a "respond" date with an $125 fee. The form claims that if I don't file my annual registration within 60 days of the "due" date that it may be at risk for penalties. I worked for many years a public accountant so I am suspicious of all mail I don't recognize. This company is very careful to word the letter so that they cannot be accused of scamming BUT with the official looking nature of the mailer and if someone doesn't read the words exactly as printed, there is a good chance of misinterpretation. I understand a business needing to advertise their services but the way this looks, it could be scary to someone who isn't as knowledgeable in state filings.

They sent an official looking letter requesting payment for our state issued business license. This company is a fraud.

This service sends an official looking form leading you to believe it is a necessary government document sent by the State of New Jersey.

The cost of the service is $160. My check was cashed. I called the number on the back of the deposited check (877-329-4662):

First call: they told me that the fee was paid to NJ for the fiscal year 2022

I checked on line and no payment was made

Second call: they told me that NJT will not accept the payment until March. 1st. Accordingly, I asked for a refund. "Aera" the woman that answered the call indicated that they will send a refund check within a week.

Checked on line and you can pay any time

CPS is making false misrepresentation that they are doing a service, where in a matter of fact no services were rendered

When called, they just indicate that a payment was made or give other incorrect information.

Need to investigate before other persons are scammed.

don't send any money.
received a letter asking me for $160 to "file my annual report" for my LLC. This struck me as ODD as I do it annually ONLINE! Felt for this trick. C.P.S is a SCAM!
They knew a LOT of information about me. Such Blood-suckers to do this during a pandemic! I hope they are prosecuted soon.

They sent an official looking Statement of Information Form, requesting a $120 processing fee for completion. They had all my business information populated in the form. It would be easy to be fooled into giving them money thinking you were behind on your requirements.

Received a "2022 - Statement of Information - Instruction Form" for California LLCs asking to submit $120 for the statement of information fees, or else we will receive a $250 late fee. I remember receiving this same letter a couple of years ago and also submitting this same form to alert others. Clearly, they have not been caught as I am still receiving a letter. It is concerning to know that they are still trying to scam people.

WARNING this business claims to assist you in filing your annual report, but charges 1000% what it actually costs to do.

BBB.com has received multiple inquiries alleging that this business sends out misleading solicitations in the form of State of Information offers to businesses to collect fees.

BBB.com was not able to locate any business registrations for CPS Filing Services in Sacramento County or with the State of California.

BBB.com confirmed that the address advertised is a UPS Store.

This is NOT a legitimate way to renew your LLC. It states that it's 2021 - Annual Report Instruction Form - for filing with your LLC annually, but it is not a government agencies. It explains that there could be fees associated with not filing. It contains information about your LLC including its name and formation date. DO NOT send them the $160 they ask for!

- Los Angeles, CA, USA

I received a "2021 - Statement of Information - Instruction Form" for California LLC's. It looks like a legitimate bill from the IRS or government agency stating that I owe my annual fee of $120. I've been in business for 5 years and never recall getting a bill like this so I tried to find their website address on the bill but their was no webs address on the sheet anywhere which was an obvious red flag so I decided to google the address and found that others have been scammed by C.P.S. and I just wanted to warn anyone else out there that this is a scam.

- Trenton, NJ, USA

C.P.S. states it will do your business filings for you. I mistakenly sent them money in Dec. 2019 and they never paid or completed any of my LLC forms. Multiple contacts with the company resulted in a partial reimbursement $125 when I was told I would receive a full refund of $235. I see other people listing this as a government agency imposter and it does appear as this is the agency the government wants you to use. I would still be annoyed that I had paid an agency when I could have done it much more cheaply myself. The fact that they did not actually do the filing makes this a scam. This business should be shut down. This scam was conducted utilizing the postal service which I believe makes it a federal offense.

This is a scam mimicking a government agency. The form requested payment of $125 for the renewal of an LLC annual certificate (which costs $25 and is done through the Oklahoma Secretary of State).

- Franklin, NJ, USA

Received mail from C.P.S.

Enclosed was an invoice for the amount of $235.00 fee

"2021 Annual Report Instruction Form (New Jersey LLCs)"

It looks like an official NJ State bill but says, in very fine print:

"C.P.S. IS NOT A GOVERNMENT AGENCY AND DOES NOT HAVE A CONTRACT WITH ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE."

It asks for names,

Titles & addresses of all officers.

Insurance company and policy number.

- Manhattan Beach, CA, USA

Mailing looked like a bona fide request for info from a gov't agency, and even had a Sacramento address. Heading was "2021 - STATEMENT OF INFORMATION - INSTRUCTION FORM (California LLCs)." Form was pre-filled with my Sec of State Entity No, formation date, and business address -- however it used my name not the business name. It solicited $120 payment and used verbiage such as "required to file" etc which narrowly skirted demanding payment. It truly looked like a bill or annual filing requirement, very misleading and a bit threatening.

+2
- Honolulu, HI, USA

Received mailer today, first class prestamped envelope with no return address/name---first indication of scam!

Top of mailer reads: "2021 ANNUAL REPORT INSTRUCTION FORM" with all pertinent personal details filled out. It even quotes the Hawaii Revised Statue and gives Steps 1 - 5, Step 5 indicating to mail a check for the annual report of $145 to CPS, with a located address in Hawaii.

After my research it shows this address is a box number and the checks are being remotely deposited. It shows this company is in connection with Workplace Compliance Services in Lansing, Michigan. Lawsuits against a Joseph Fata. Why is this still going on for several years?

I almost fell for this scam so I wanted to warn others so they don't fall for this!

C.P.S. Service is still sending out bogus, SCAM mailers to businesses/Owners of LLC's in advance of their Statement of Information renewals. I received one 4 years ago requesting I mail to them, NOT the Secretary of State's office, $120.00 to satisfy my due fees which are only $20.00 every 2 years.

DON'T FALL for this trickery. I'm surprised they haven't been shut down by now.

They are sending these in Colorado as well under the name B.C.S., generously offering to file your periodic report for $110, then telling you right on the form (in small print) you can do it yourself online for $10.00

5614 Connecticut Ave. NW #190
Washington DC, 20015

It's the address of a UPS store.

- Matawan, NJ, USA

Received a postal mail that looked very official telling me it was time to file my Annual Business Report. They are charging $160 which is a gross overcharge. It is clear they are trying to make it look like they are official NJ State agency, but they are not.

+1

I received a "biennial statement" for my LLC. They were asking for $100 and that I was required to pay with in 60 days of this letter or I may not be able to do certain transactions for my business. I file annually and thankfully did not fall for this. The statement looks pretty legit, so be careful and always do a google search!
