I received a envelope that was made to look official. I knew it was bogus by the address and the fact that my name was mispelled. I also looked up the address and found other cases of the same address being used that was noted to be a scam. I threw it away without opening.

I am reporting my 2 postal mail scams today, and this is the 2nd one for what is likely the same scammer as the 1st. I have scanned and attached the letter the scammer sent.

Somebody is making a lot of money off this scam, so it would be desirable if ScamPulse.com could pass along this and any others for this address to the police as I suspect that this address is also a UPS Store with a postal box which, after an enquiry by the Washington D.C. police, can be identified.

The scam letter purported to be a Washington State entity collecting a $135 fee to stay “compliant with state law” by paying the company Next Step Filings for the “2026 Annual Corporate for Commercial Filing Services for Washington Companies.” The mailing zip code was 22204, but listed the address for receiving any reply letters as 300 Lenora Street #1233,

Seattle, WA 98121.

Report

After I registered a new LLC in the State of Texas, the mentioned company sent a letter to me posing as an official and required part of my company formation, with terminology in the document and on the website (which they insisted you visit via QR code) that represented a submission through their online portal as "NEEDED" and "REQUIRED".

I found out that this is a private company with no official role and representing an optional commercial service that they charge over $400 for as required.

They do have very small fine print that says it's an optional service, but have much larger print saying it is a NEEDED and REQUIRED service, noting deadlines and very large penalties if one does not proceed with their service.

Total scam and this company should be fined and put out of business.

It's companies like this that are eroding the US business landscape.

Document noted several federal statutes regarding workplace safety and the severity of violating OSHA regulations and requested $295.00 be mailed to "C.P.S." The document was made to look like an official government document, as is clearly trying to scam new business owners into paying for things they don't need.

I received the attached document in the mail shortly after setting up my LLC. It appeared to be an official document asking for payment for corporate meeting minutes. It also so pulled some excerpts of the law to add some legitimacy. It asks for a list of the owners and their title along with contact information and signature. It also asks for payment in the amount of 148.67 for a corporate annual minute fee.
