Fake Business Compliance Letter Scam Reports & Reviews – Page 17 (444)

- Niles, OH, USA

We received in USPS mail an envelope with no return address and printed in the postage area was "Mailing from Zip Code 27407" and "Presorted First-Class Mail U.S. Postage Paid Permit #34". Inside contained an official looking IRS-style "Form 5102", titled "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting". It demands that the form be completed with the contact information of the business officers and to return the form with a check or money order for $119. There is no contact information anywhere except for the mailing address on a return envelope.

- North Stonington, CT, USA

They stated it was required that I file an annual report for my business. They had my home, business address and my business ID for the state of CT. They claimed it was for the federal government but I had to sent the payment to DC not CT.

- Claflin, KS, USA

Sent to my LLC trying to make it look like the Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting

- Phoenixville, PA, USA

I am starting up a new business, and received an official-looking letter stating that my "business is required by Federal Law to post a current compliant labor law poster in the workplace"; and that failure to do so could result in fines of "nearly $40,000". The letter goes on to stress that "penalties and risks of non-compliance with posting regulations can lead to potential fines" and "lawsuits". I should pay a Document Fee of $92.58, to be mailed to the address in Harrisburg, PA.

(I believe that the poster costs $9.95, and I do not need one anyway because I don't have any employees).

- Colorado Springs, CO, USA

I revieved a letter from "Annual Records Service" addressed to my Business named "Kratos Investigations and Process Service llc." which is attached to my real name via Colorado SOS Records. It is likely my name and physical address were conpromised if they searched my business through Colorado secretary of state. I am 100% certain I have already filed my BOI, so this letter for "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" I received via postal mail is almost definitely a phising attempt

I am treasurer for a small foundation to help children and adults that have had a tragedy occur in their life. Our president received a letter to complete. It was labeled "Form 5102, mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" to be completed and returned to Annual Records Service and a filling fee of $119.00. I completed the form with a check from our foundation. The included envelope was addressed to Annual Records Service, 1030 15TH ST NW #366, WASHINGTON DC 20005-1503. The check was deposited. The back was stamped: FOR DEPOSIT ONLY ************ ****** ******** ******************* ********* ******* ******* ************* ****** **** ***** **** **** ****. When I questioned the legitimacy of the form with another foundation board member, she discovered information about the 5102 Form fraud.
