Our business received a government Form 5102 from "Annual Records Service" with a "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" to be submitted with a payment of $119.00. It looked very convincing, but the font was slightly irregular compared to standard government forms, and I've never heard of an "Annual Records Service." I looked into it and the FinCEN does require this form to be submitted, but there is no payment due for the filing, and is encouraged to file online. I found the scam alert on your website when I searched the address on the return envelope.

Type of a scam: Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

Received a letter in the mail from the Annual Records Service with a form number at the top saying 5102. There is no email, phone number, or website to pay the fee they are asking for. They are asking to send in a check or money order. It looks like an official government form including a paragraph explaining what it is and the penalties if not paid. However, if you read the paragraph at the bottom of the page, the last sentence does say "Your signature is your acceptance for The Annual Records Service to act as your paid preparer to file this BOI on your behalf." I googled this to see if it was legit, and everyone said it was a scam.

Type of a scam: Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

I received a letter on August 8, 2024, from a company called C.P.S. The letter was addressed to my business, and indicated that I was required to purchase a "2024 Safety Manual" to comply with federal OSHA regulations. The letter strongly suggested that failing to purchase this manual could result in substantial fines and penalties, creating a sense of urgency and legal obligation.

The letter was formatted to appear official, citing the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, and included a deadline for response. However, upon further inspection, I noticed that the letter also stated that C.P.S. is a non-governmental organization with no contract with any government agency, which contradicts the implication that the manual is required by law.

My business is a sole proprietorship with no employees, and I operate entirely from a home office in a computer-based capacity. After researching, I found that OSHA provides free resources and that I am not required to purchase any safety manual from a third party, especially given the nature of my business.

The tactics used by C.P.S. are misleading and predatory, targeting small business owners who may not be familiar with OSHA regulations. They create a false sense of urgency and legal requirement, pressuring business owners to purchase an unnecessary product for $295.

I believe this is a deceptive practice aimed at exploiting small businesses, and I am reporting it to the ScamPulse.com to raise awareness and potentially prevent others from falling victim to this scam. It is important that C.P.S. is held accountable for misleading business owners and using scare tactics to sell their product.

I recently registered my business name with the state of residence then received a non-government letter stating I needed to pay $295 to avoid penalties. By the signature line, it says “I certify that I have read this document, understand its contents and authorize the charges. I understand that C.P.S. is not a government agency and is not providing legal advice.”
