Received an official looking letter in the mail. Website address wasn't producing a website to move forward on, so went to ScamPulse.com Scam Alert and found information about this letter.

Letter states:

Your business has a reporting obligation under the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). This reporting is required by The Financial Crime Enforcement Network (FinCEN). The CTA now mandates certain entities to disclose beneficial ownership information to FinCen. The primary objective is to curb money laundering, terrorism financing, and other financial crimes by augmenting transparency in corporate structures.

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) is dedicated to fostering transparency and accountability to combat illicit financial activities. WE wish to apprise you of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), a federal law enacted to enhance corporate transparency. This letter is to notify you of your business's obligation.

The penalties for noncompliance with the CTA can be severe. Companies that fail to file the required reports or that file false or misleading information may be subject to civil fines of up to $500 per day, criminal fines of up to $10,000, and/or imprisonment for up to two years.
