Report

This has been previously reported after searching the internet but we received a similar piece of mail for our LLC business which contained a form "4022" labeled "Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" and stated we must file the form with all of our information (name, address, phone) but more importantly said there is a $117 filing fee and if we didn't respond by the deadline (in our case 3/7/2024) there would be fines of $500 / day (uggg...flag in my mind...what?) and/or $10,000 and up to 2 years in prison (REALLY???).

Letter received in the mail indicating the submission of a Beneficial Ownership Information with a $117 submission fee. My state business ID number was located on the letter & the letter verbiage advised of potential fine fees with additional costs if not submitted by March 4th. 2024. The letter was accompanied with a return envelope with a Washington DC return address, but it looked generic & the postage sticker area was just a blank box. With extensive research both on the internet, reference to other friends with small businesses & browsing the FICEN website thst indicates the submittal is free. I am suspecting the received letter is a scam.

Purports to be a "tax lien" and a "judgment". No such thing exists.

I searched for passport renewal and found a website that looked legitimate to fill out the forms. I filled out everything and paid a fee. In the end, I realized the fee I paid was not for the application fee. I paid $62 for them to use the info I entered and put it into the correct forms for me to download.

They call and stated that they are affiliated with the government giving out free phones, tablet, and internet WIFI.  They have my last four digits of my ssn.  I became suspicious.
