Website mimics the government site for filing a Beneficial Ownership Information report for your small business and tricks you into believing you are on the correct site. They require a credit card as the very last step after you have already provided and uploaded all of your sensitive information for yourself as an individual and for your business. At the top of the page they state that if you don't file by January 13, 2025 (which is the correct deadline) you will be subject to penalties of $592 per day. Nowhere does it state that you will be charged a fee for filing through their website. Website content is presented in such a way that one thinks the credit card is necessary only should there need to be a future charge: should you not file with the proper information. As soon as I completed all steps and hit "submit" I received a fraud alert via text from my bank/credit card asking if I authorized a charge of $349 (which I did not).

We have fallen victim to a fraudulent scheme perpetrated by an organization operating under the name BOIRregistration.com, pretending to be a goverment agency. This entity deceived us into providing funds and sensitive personal information, including the business owner's Social Security Number, credit card details, phone number, and address. Subsequently, they refused to engage in further correspondence and ceased responding to our messages and all emails sent to them were bounced.

The organization's contact number turned out to be bogus, and the phone line was redirected to another company, with which we also shared personal information. The company represented itself as BOIRregistration.com but has no affiliation with FinCEN’s official BOI registration system. Instead, it misrepresented itself on Google as an authorized agent for BOI registration.

Several red flags raised our initial suspicion:

The commercial domain name (.com) instead of a government domain (.gov).

The absence of any verifiable corporate information on the website.

They insisted on immediate payment as soon as the company name was entered.

No receipt or confirmation of payment was ever provided.

No FinCEN ID number was supplied.

The BOI registration process, which should be free, was improperly charged for.

We seek assistance in addressing this matter and taking the necessary steps to protect our personal and financial information and report scammers BOIRregistration.com to the authorities

Owners of U.S. businesses are required to comply with new rules set out by "The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). The CTA is a federal law that requires business entities to report details about their ownership to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) - a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury). My small business was scammed out of $349 by BOIR.COM on 10/20/22. This website came up first when I googled where to file a BOI (Beneficial Ownership Information) report. I inadvertently filed the BOI report at BOIR.com. Unfortunately, the scam BOIR.com website says "file your BOIR now" midway, and then way below at the bottom, it says not affiliated with the government and you can file it directly. This is no phone number to call this scam company, only an email address. I emailed them immediately ([email protected]) after I submitted and told them to cancel my submission as I wanted to file directly at the government website at Beneficial Ownership Information Reporting | FinCEN.gov to file it for free. This opportunistic business charged our small business $349 on 10/24/24, 2 days after I told them to cancel my submission. This is no phone number to call this predatory business. They have not responded to my email or sent me any further correspondence that they even submitted my information to the government. Small business owners need to be notified about this scam website NOT TO USE IT. It is misleading and takes advantage of customers by putting the relevant information at the very bottom, and then ignoring any request to cancel. It is not even a website that is needed, it is purely a money grab. I would like help to get my money back if possible.
