I received a 2024 Biennial Statement Instruction Form, which was addressed to my LLC. The letter requested $150 to file a prescribed statement with the Department of State on my behalf. The form continues to state that the agency, C.P.S, is not a government agency and does not have a contract with any governmental agency to provide this service.

The company, C.P.S sent me a "2024 Biennial Statement." The statement looks legitimate and appears to coming from a government agency. On the form, they have listed a customer ID number and my DOS ID number and the formation date of my business, which I understand is public knowledge. They claim that if I do not file my biennial statement I may be "prevented from certain business transactions." They do have a disclaimer that "C.P.S. is not a government agency and does not have a contract with any governmental agency to provide this service." Upon careful examination and googling the name of the group, I've learned that others have been scammed into submitting $150. I know that it only costs $9 to file a biennial statement with the government. I don't want other businesses, especially new ones, to fall victim to this scam.

It’s about a private agency that sent out a form/letter to business owner that the business owners are required to file annual report under law 428-210. This private agency, c.p.s is asking the business owner to complete the form and send it back to them with $160 fee/payment. The format of the form looks official and legit if You don’t read it carefully. It’s such a misleading form. The annual filing online through DDCA hawaii official website only charge $12.50 for LLC business. DDCA Hawaii official website also warns unofficial annual business report solicitations.

I received an official looking "2022-Business Entity Report Instruction Form" from C.P.S. telling me they would help me file a required State business entity report for $125. The actual cost of the report is a fraction of that cost.

This company sent a form titled 2022 - Annual Report Instruction Form (New jersey LLCs) which only vaguely explained that they will assist with filing an annual report. The NJ state required report is very simple to complete and is considerably less that 160.00. Seems this company charges excessive fees.

New York State LLC business owners BEWARE! This company, C.P.S. sends a letter via USPS which appears to be official. It does contain a disclaimer that it is not a Government Agency. It is a service to file the Biennial Statement which costs $9 every two years. I called the customer service number to inform them I reported this to the Office of Incorporations. They have heard previously of this scam. The rep said it is a service and not a scam. I said it is very DECEIVING. He said it says it's a service and you can go online and pay the $9 directly. It does not state anywhere on the form you can go online and complete the filing on your own. He lied! Why would someone knowingly pay $91 to a company to file with the NYS. Who knows if they really even file!

C.P.S. Sent me a Statement of Information to check with a request to send a $120 filing fee. The actual filing must be done through the state and is $20. This is a scam, and o was almost taken in. Why has this “business” not been shut down? There have been many complaints.
