Received mail to my business which is only 6 weeks old. Received in Virtual Mail via Earth Class Mail (owned by LegalZoom). Only contents in envelope is a "FORM 5102" asking for check or money order to be sent to ANNUAL RECORDS SERVICE, 1030 15TH ST NW #366, WASHINGTON, D.C., 20005-1503. I google Annual Records Service and the ScamPulse.com Scam Tracker with this company was the top result. They are asking for "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" which I had already filed before the end of 2024 with the legitimate government website before they "extended" its mandatory status indefinitely a couple weeks ago.

Form 5102 Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting notice that came after the due date on the statement. Severe penalties of 500.00/day late fee and/or jail with an additional 10,000 fine if continued non-compliance. Looks legitimate and had me worried but decided to look it up with all of the scams circulating.

This was almost sent for payment; however, our legal department caught it and investigated.

Formed a new LLC recently. This scam mailer has an official looking form (“Form 5102”…the formatting is quite good) that cites that all new US businesses must report the beneficial owner or else face penalties (which is true). The form has a $119 filing fee, check payable to the Annual Records Service, located in Washington, DC. My lawyer already filed this information, so the scammer is just using the publicly available name and mailing address of my LLC to attempt to get me to pay a filing fee again. DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS SCAM. Just throw it in the trash or recycling bin along with your other junk mail.
