- Milwaukee, WI, USA

Received a paper in the mail to my business from the "US Business Regulations Dept." Form 4044 for "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting." Had a Notice ID T104644 and was informed to respond by 3/6/2024 otherwise there were penalties for non-compliance ($500 for each day/$10,000 of fine and face up to 2 years of imprisonment). Mentions "pursuant to the united states corporate transparency act enacted by congress" US businesses are required to report their beneficial ownership information"...etc. Looked like a tax form to fill out, however no instructions provided only an envelope to submit check and filled out form. Mentioned to "make check or money order payable to: US Business Regulations Dept." No email or phone # provided.

(I reported on 3/1/24, but did not receive proper help. I am resubmitting this report to include all the information I have since I cannot share screenshots.)

I was in a cruising group, and someone posted a way to win money. I responded, and someone by the name of Jalene Coleman from Lebanon, MIssouri reached out to me asking me how I wanted to be paid. Before I called her out on the scam, she wrote:

"I'm an affiliate of the BLACKROCK.INC in conjunction with Private Market Investors on Universal Solutions for ESG reporting. This program has been going round lately to help with financial assistance."

She sent me screenshots of someone she had "helped" in which she told them to pay "the verification fee $50" before they could get their "winnings" from her.

She used the CashApp tag $TammyMyrick in the screenshots she sent me. She also told that person:

"Once your sent payment is confirmed you'll receive your finalized payment direct into your cash app"

As soon as I told her I would report her, she deleted her Facebook account. This person told me they could send me money through any of these: Cash App, PayPal, Zelle, Venmo, Walmart to Walmart, Chime to Chime, or Apple Pay.

The only link they provided, I did not click on since I didn't know if it would lead to a virus or something else. The link:

https://blackrock.com/us-en/wealth-strategies/investment-service

There was also a QR Code, but I did not open that, either.

- Sioux Falls, SD, USA

I googled to obtain a Amazon number to find out a charge on my credit card statement as I was unfamiliar with it. Persons answered an Amazon fraud department. I told him reason for calling. He said I will transfer you to fraud department. I was then informed if I knew I had money taken from my account from various countries. I said I do not as my bank account doesn’t show that. He mumbled something then asked me if I had a reliable friend I gave him a name and he immediately contacted her after I gave him her number and scammed her of $999. He came back to me and asked if I had Venmo or cash app I said yes so he took me they all the steps to use the app and get into my bank account. He proceeded to tell me how everything was safe now. My friend called me and said it was a scam. I called the bank immediately but was informed it was pending I said you can’t stop it. They said not at this point. So I called Venmo and Cash app to freeze accounts. $2500 was debited to my account. I have contacted the bank, Venmo, Cash app regarding this situation they reply that a third party was involved and okay’d it. I don’t know who the third party is but I never told them to take money from me, He kept telling me amounts to put in. Any possibility of retrieving the money?! I feel really really ignorant. Thank you!! I learned a great deal. I changed my bank accounts. I did not change passwords on Venmo or Cash app. I will do that. Thank you for any assistance you can do on this case.
