Type of a scam: Phishing

Scammer sent our nonprofit school agency, a form titled "mandatory beneficial ownership reporting", from the "annual records service"using our official title of how we are filed with the IRS as a 501(c)(3), asking for $119. The form at first glance looks legitimate, even using the correct font that the IRS uses. Upon further inspection there are parts of the text that are left out such as the last digit of the year in two different places on the form. There is a section to fill out and it even mentions "penalties for noncompliance". It gives a date to respond by, uses language, such as "pursuant to the United States, corporate transparency, act enacted by Congress", and gives an address to make a check or money order payable to "under penalties of perjury". A definite scam that I hope others will not fall for.

Type of a scam: Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

The LLC received a Form 5102 from Annual Records Service saying that it is mandatory pursuant to the United States Corporate Transparency Act to fill out the form and send in a filing fee of $119.00. Online site 'reddit' has the same form uploaded for viewing (See Reference). According to the Better Business Bureau, there is no filing fee for registering of any business with Washington DC (See Reference). The mailing didn't have any return address on the envelope either.

Type of a scam: Phishing

This came in the mail addressed to my LLC requesting a check or money order for a filing fee payable to "Annual Records Service". This 'Form 5102' claims to be a 'Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting' form for any, ..."corporation, limited liability company, or any other entities created by the filing of a document with a secretary of state or any similar office in the United States." There are threats of penalties for non compliance of "$500 each day the violation continues" as well as a "$10,000 fine and/or up to 2 years of imprisonment". At first glance, the letter appears to be official, but at the same time, looks off. The first indication this may be a scam was one the date list to respond by was listed, "10/25/202" which is obviously missing a number. Same goes for a random date listed on the bottom of the letter as "10/11/202". Other indicators were, there was no contact information listed anywhere such as a web address or phone number and a completely different form number of "Form 4022" listed on the bottom of the letter.

Type of a scam: Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

Received a letter with "Form 5102" and instructions to provide all my business and personal information along with a check or money order for $119. There is a message in the top right corner of the form citing that "Pursuant to the United States Corporate Transparency Act" if I don't file this form, I could be fined $500 per day up to $10,000 as well as 2 years imprisonment. There is no other information. No email, no website, no phone number. I googled the address and it appears to be a UPS store in Washington, D.C. I did not respond but want to warn others.

Sounds the same as the scam alert. 500.00 a day fine, additional 10,000 fine up to 2 years in prison.

Looks pretty official. I went to IRS.Gov to look up form and found there was no form 5102. Then I started digging deeper and discovered the scam out there.

My practice received a single page "form" in the mail labeled Form 5102 indicating that I must complete and return it in order to avoid up to $10,000 fine or 2 years of imprisonment. It requested my name, EIN for the business, address, and payment. There was NO notation on the form about it not being an official government document. Instead, it indicated that US Businesses are required to report their beneficial ownership information, and that this has been "enacted by congress".
