Type of a scam Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

I received mail with my business name on it stating I need to fill out Form 5510 for Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting. They have our Louisiana id # on it and it asks for the business EIN, phone & email as well as all of the information for each company owner (name, address, city, state & zip code). I was not aware that this was not legit when we started our business last year and I paid it. This time, I am not submitting the requested $119.00.
