The scammer sent a letter with inflammatory language regarding the implementation of the new Corporate Transparency Act. The scammer directed the recipient to a website that is NOT connected with the agency implementing this new law. The proper URL, for the record is: https://boiefiling.fincen.gov/

The proper agency, for the record, is the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).

Presumably, if the recipient clicked on the QR code to go to the scammer's site, they would have been prompted to pay a fee to file the required report - which should otherwise be free!

I got a letter in the mail with a business filing division seal with an eagle on it, from United States department of records management. No actual address or phone number other than the 888-705-1545. Which seems to be on reports for previous scams to other people. I've tried the QR code and it doesn't open up and I've tried the phone number and it goes to the mailbox which is full and does not sound like a government place at all. So I'm reporting this as a scam it says I have until the 19th to report my business. Which I have already done with the actual state Secretary. I don't think this notice of federal filing requirement - mandatory ownership reporting is a valid piece of paper. There is no Manning address or any forms to fill out. Just a QR code that goes nowhere, and a phone number that goes to a full mailbox. At this point I believe it's a scam. I think I would have got a letter from the state Secretary for any type of filings of my business. So I've tried to make contact and like I said it goes nowhere.

I received the scam in the mail and it looked legit so I went to the website but it wasn't working which is when I realized it was a scam. I am assuming had the website been active, I'd have been asked to pay money in order to file.

I searched around and the agency does not exist. "United Business Regulation" or "United States Department of Records Management"

Caller said they had twice attempted to serve a summons and that I was more being considered evasive which could lead to more trouble. They left another number to call, which wasn’t in service. I attempted to call back but no one picked up. Searched local court website to make sure there was no validity.

I am selling a used car on Craigslist. I was contacted by a person going by the name of Chris from phone number 380-264-0932 about how he wanted to purchase my car. He sent me a web site link called, "search autoreport.com". He wanted me to go on this web site to retrieve a vehicle history report. He was requesting a copy of this report before coming to look at the car. He stated he would not negotiate the price if I provided him this report. He was a little demanding about me sending him this report. I spent $27 dollars on the report and I sent it to him to an e-mail he provided. The e-mail he provided was [email protected]. He then asked for a copy of the window sticker from the website he provided. The window sticker was an additional fee. I did not spend the extra money for the window sticker. Since I already conducted a carfax report, I sent him a copy of the window sticker from my carfax report. I didn't hear back from him after sending the window sticker. I never got an e-mail response from him so I am sure the e-mail he provided either didn't exist or belonged tos some unknown person. I researched online and found someone describing the very same scenario as me. They get you to go on a website to spend money on a report. Now they have some of your personal information that they probable sell to 3rd party people. He came across as a legitimate person and willing to pay the asking price of the vehicle. I did not provide him my address. He was asking my exact location.
