- Colorado Springs, CO, USA

I got an email saying I had to immediately file my BOIR which should have been a red flag because I filled mine out 11/18/2024. However, I thought maybe I needed to do another one for whatever reason due to new rules or regulations. It had almost all of our information on there except for personal info which should have been another red flag but alas I filled it out. I completed it and never received a follow up email like I did when I filed the legitimate BOIR. Disputing charges now. Learn from my mistakes.

- Marietta, GA, USA

The website was very similar to the US passport website for renewing. It takes down all of the information that would go on a passport.

- Atlanta, GA, USA

Minimal contact information was provided; image trickery since the website looked very similar to a government site; it automatically added optional fees such as insurance raising the cost of service. Luckily my bank caught the deception and returned my money. I am afraid of Identity Theft since they asked for personal information e.g. birthdates, social security, birth places, and etc.

Received a text from California toll services, but with a 306 area code and for North Carolina. I havent lived in California for 20 years and have never been to North Carolina.

- Baltimore, MD, USA

My business received a letter/notice stating we had a fee due by 1/3/24 stating, "In accordance with the business laws of the State of Maryland. Complete this Annual Minutes Statement and mail the completed form with your check or money order payable to: ANNUAL RECORDS SERVICE in the enclosed envelope."

The 'Corporate Annual Minutes Fee' was $148.67 and the form wanted names/titles/percentage of ownership of our businesses owners. I did not mail in or submit any information as it looked suspicious.

Pretended to be a government agency. I fell for the trick and paid for the services, that also was never delivered to me.

I utilized the website https://copyright-application-online.com/ via a google search for copyrighting music. I was under the impression it was a government site. I provided them with eight music files for copyright registration and was charged a 148 dollar fee after providing debit card information. I then discovered this site was in no way affiliated with the government copyright office. I am more concerned with the handling of my materials than recouping the fee - I have since canceled the used debit card.
