Type of a scam: Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

I recently registered an LLC for my business, and this week received a letter with no return address containing a form "5102" and a return envelope addressed to "Annual Records Service" in Washington, DC. The form was "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" with a due date, a filing fee of $119, and warnings about the US Corporate Transparency Act as well as the fines that would be incurred if I failed to file. I am very familiar with scams, but the formatting and wording of the form was quite convincing. In very fine print at the bottom, it stated that my signature was acceptance for "The Annual Records Service to act as your paid preparer to file this BOI on your behalf." I am currently not even required to file a BOI, and the deceptive nature of this letter tells me that this company is seeking to rip people off.

I received in the mail from an official looking document for "Annual Records Service." I just had started a small business and did my BOI filing so I am assuming thats why they tried to send me that. Annoying that they have my information but I guess its public information now. Glad I googled it and found it to be a scam.

I received an "Official" envelope at my business address, labeled Annual Records Service. Inside there is form 5510 "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting".

The scam involved my business name in a document that very closely resembles a legit government form. Top right it says Form 5102 but they forgot to change the number on the bottom which says Form 4022 which is another famous scam attempt. It asks for a money order or check for the amount of $119 payable to the "Annual Records Service" and makes reference to the Corporate Transparency Act. No phone number to call or website to visit is listed

Annual Records Service mails official-looking bills that look like they are from a Government Agency. This one claimed it was for Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting. The bill includes a form that asks for names, address, EIN, phone number, and other personal details. This is the second attempt by this company, only last time the form was for a different "Mandatory Reporting". The address given for mailing the check is a UPS Box in a UPS store in Washington, DC.

Type of a scam: Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

I am the person of correspondence for a startup company registered by my friend. I receive all letters addressed to his company. Today I got an official-looking mail from Annual Records Service from 1030 15th St NW #366, Washington DC 20005-1503. The letter looks like a tax form with form number 5510 and the title "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting." It asks to fill in information of the company's beneficial owners and a payment of $119 by check or money order by 4/22/2025. The letter even has an envelope inside for returning the form. However, at the bottom lower corner of the form, the form number becomes 4022, which does not match the number at the top left corner. Also, the printing quality of the form is very bad. Some fields are printed very clearly while others are blurry, as if someone took a low-resolution picture of a tax form and then photoshopped some fields. A quick google search shows that there have been many reports of this kind of scam that uses exactly the same company name (Annual Records Service).

Received a piece of mail requesting an annual minutes fee. The document looked rather convincing, but as a single business holder with very little activity given the company is very new and still being stood up, the request made no sense either. The language was vague as well related to several "business state laws"
