Sent a form 4022, similar to a government form and asking detailed personal information. It looked like a government requirement and said that if not in compliance we could be arrested and fined up to $10,000 USD.

Report

I received a letter address to the business that I own claiming it was from the "United States Business Regulations Department". The letter included "Form 4022 Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting" stating that my business was required to mail a check or money order for $117 to the US Business Regulations Dept., pursuant to the United States Corporate Transparency Act, enacted by Congress. The form stated that companies who neglect to report by the filing deadline face civil penalties and up to 2 years of imprisonment. I was suspicious of this letter and googled it immediately before making any payments, but I can see how many business owners could believe that this was an official document.

Official-looking government form (states it's form 4022) from the "US Business Regulations Dept." Requests information about a small business's "beneficial ownership information" and requests a filing fee of $117. Font / layout looks like a legitimate tax form.

Report

Received a very convincing form 4022 saying it was Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting needed pursuant to the US Corporate Transparency Act enacted by congress. Saying there was a $117 fee need to go with the form and failing to do so would result in a $500 penalty per day. Additionally, it threatens a fine up to $10,000 or 2 year of imprisonment.
