Scam letter about business compliance fee received

Postal mail picked up today. Due today (5/27/2026). No date on stamp. I only retrieve mail for the writers group once a week. Had just paid the state commission fee and thought this looked odd so I googled it and found it was a scam. They recommended reporting it to you.

Misleading annual report letter for Virginia non-profit

I received a form in the mail for an "2026 - Annual Report Instruction Form" instructing me to send a check for $100 to a PO Box in Washington, DC for my Virginia-based non-profit group. It states in the payment information "Complete payment to file your annual report." There is an annual report that needs to be filed for this group, but it is done through the Virginia State Corporation Commission. The "please respond by" date is also not the same date as the due date listed within the VA SCC website.

I am reporting my 2 postal mail scams today, and this is the 2nd one for what is likely the same scammer as the 1st. I have scanned and attached the letter the scammer sent.

Somebody is making a lot of money off this scam, so it would be desirable if ScamPulse.com could pass along this and any others for this address to the police as I suspect that this address is also a UPS Store with a postal box which, after an enquiry by the Washington D.C. police, can be identified.

Type of a scam: Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

After I registered a new LLC in the State of Texas, the mentioned company sent a letter to me posing as an official and required part of my company formation, with terminology in the document and on the website (which they insisted you visit via QR code) that represented a submission through their online portal as "NEEDED" and "REQUIRED".

I found out that this is a private company with no official role and representing an optional commercial service that they charge over $400 for as required.

They do have very small fine print that says it's an optional service, but have much larger print saying it is a NEEDED and REQUIRED service, noting deadlines and very large penalties if one does not proceed with their service.

Total scam and this company should be fined and put out of business.

It's companies like this that are eroding the US business landscape.

Document noted several federal statutes regarding workplace safety and the severity of violating OSHA regulations and requested $295.00 be mailed to "C.P.S." The document was made to look like an official government document, as is clearly trying to scam new business owners into paying for things they don't need.
