Type of a scam Phishing
They requested a $135.00 filing fee.
The letter appeared legit, it was when I called the number that they stated they were a private company that could help w the business registration renewal. Very misleading!
I have concern for non English business owners or vulnerable adults -
I consider myself an educated adult and they had me going...

I hate to see the honest/ignorant taken advantage of! I get one every year and THROW IT INTO RECYCLING…but this year I got 2 (different scammers, other one is in recycle) so I’m filing a complaint. The SCAM is simple. They send you an official looking letter for your “ANNUAL (business) RENEWAL INSTRUCTION FORM” in an effort to get you to send them $95 (unless a change of address, it then goes to $150). If you read the actual words they tell you in plain English that they are a scam but it is buried under an official document that they are counting on you NOT to read and just send a check.
Business renewal is free. Answer email from SOS and click click you’re done.

Type of a scam Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill
Knowing this fee is $50 annually I read the fine print that basically means they will pay for you for a total of $150. It is clearly stated All CFS Processing Fees are 100% Fully Guaranteed and they ask for your Signature and enclosed check.
So this is a scam. I know because a couple of years ago I got the same letter and contacted the Georgia state attorneys office who said it was a scam. Got it again this year. Why can’t something be done on this? People are getting scammed for $150 plus giving a check with account numbers. This is simply wrong. Thank you!

This process is taken care of annually by our accountant and we have NEVER used the services of this organization. It would be very easy for an unsuspecting business to pay this fee when it is already being taken care of for them. This is EXTREMELY DECEPTIVE and should not be allowed. Please let me know if I should be reporting this to any other organizations.

Next are the 5 steps for you to complete/confirm. This includes confirming the LLC name replete with a space to describe the nature of the business the LLC conducts followed by a request that the recipient to supply the FEIN (Step 1: Please do not give away your FEIN!). The registered agent is listed in Step 2. Names of the manager(s) and address(es) are already provided with a check box to indicate if the managers represent a commercial entity (Step 3). The fee requested is $295 (Step 4). No website is given and inquiries can be sent to an email address or by the 855 toll number. The letter instructs you at the bottom to make the check to CFS. You are not given the option to pay by credit card. The address at the bottom of the form and the enclosed envelop: PO Box 30668, Charlotte NC 28230. At the very bottom, the letter states "FAILURE TO RETURN THIS FORM OR REMIT PAYMENT WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON YOUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE CONDUCTING BUSINESS WITHIN THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA". Then the letter concludes that you can file directly with SOSNC for $202 (which is true).
Please note that there is an insert that reminds you what you have to do. A check or money order is requested and a different toll number starting with 877 is given.
I did not take the bait but I can see that it is easy to be fooled into writing a check out of panic. The other red flag is that our LLC has been around for 7 years. I had never seen a form like this.
