Type of a scam Phishing

I received a letter in the mail today addressed to my business from Workplace Compliance Services, 1022 Boulevard #248, West Hartford, CT, 06119, stating that I had not filed my Annual Filing Report to the State of CT in over a year and that if I did not file, my business "may be in default and administratively dissolved". This business was asking me to send them a check for $110. My annual filing fee with the State is $20, so this vendor is making $90 if I were to send in the check. The letter had my business ID#, name, address, and looked "official" with a barcode and a please respond by date. The letter was titled 2019--Annual Report Instruction Form. It also listed a CT General Statute that applies to LLC annual filings. Down the page it states that Workplace Compliance Services is not a government agency and does not have a contract with a government agency to provide the service. This mailing does not clearly state that it is a third party service that you are paying for to file your annual report (at the cost of $110--$20 for the filing and their $90 fee). This letter is deceptive and if a person is not aware of what it really is, potentially may pay this money without knowing what is really happening. If you are wondering if you may have missed your annual filing, it is easy to check on the State of CT Concord site, which lists the date your annual filing is really due. I am reporting this because this company is using deceptive practices.

While there is a notice that they are not a government agency, the form, sent through the US mail uses official sounding language - clearly a scare tactic. I've filed our company's periodic reports online for years, and even I had to look into this. It is a breeze to file online and costs only $10 to renew a business license. Workplace Compliance Services charges $85 - $10 for the filing fee, and $75 for their processing fee. BE FORWARNED. DO NOT FILE YOUR PERIOD REPORT THROUGH THEM.

If you don't know how to do it yourself, follow these instructions. I give them point-by-point. Go on www.co.sos.state.co.us, click on Business, Trademarks, Trade Names. Then click File a Business Document. Then click File a Form for an Existing Record. Enter your company name, and click search. You should see a company record pop up. Click the ID Number. A confirmation screen will pop up - click Confirm.Then click File a Form and follow the instructions. Once you go through this process, be sure to get your email in the Colorado SOS system because then they will send you an email when a periodic report is due. You click the link in their email, and it leads you strait to the company profile where you can easily file a form.

Sent an official looking letter with our business information, likely pulled from the Secretary of State's website. $100 in fees to report our company information, which should be done on the Business4WV website. Phone number shows it to target many companies in many states.

I received an "Annual Report Instruction Form". It appeared to be legit from the WV Secretary of State at first glance. I first noticed that it wasn't when I saw that they were requiring $100 for the submission rather than the $25 that the Secretary of State requires. Upon reading of the fine print, they do disclose that they are not a government agency. However, this form is likely to trick many new business owner who have never filled out this form before.

Upon investigation, I also found that they are not listed on the WV Secretary of State's site as a business licensed in this state.

Type of a scam Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

I received a letter in the mail that looked like it was from the local Secretary of State wanting me to renew my annual certificate as an LLC. Workplace Compliance says in the letter that they are not a government agency but this is stated in the middle of the document. This document looks legitimate as if it my actual annual certificate renewal as an LLC. This document is extremely misleading. If someone wasn't paying attention, they would send payment off to this company and lose $75 for something they can do themselves for free every year. Companies who have been in business for years will know this is not legitimate. New company's however could think this is true. Again for deceitful.

Company mailed out a form entitled "2019 - Annual Report Instruction Form" trying to impersonate the Oregon Secretary of State. The real form is available online through the state of Oregon website. This fake form includes a $75 processing fee in addition to the $100 state fee which is questionable whether it would even go to the state or rather just to this fraudulent company.

Received an official-looking form requesting payment to file an annual Oregon LLC report. The form does state that Workplace Compliance is not a government agency. This is interspersed with Oregon Revised Statutes quoting LLC laws and requirements. For the small fee of $75, this company will fill out a paper form and file my report with the state. I can fill the same form online for free in less than 3 minutes. These scammers need to be shut down.

Type of a scam Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

I received a letter in the mail indicating our trucking business was overdue for annual report for the business and although I was not sure about the letter, it looked legitimate and instead of checking with our accountant to validate the letter, I went ahead and filled it out and sent it in with a check. The deposited check is attached showing it was cashed in MI, I did contact the bank but was unable to speak to a person and left a message. I think the bank should be aware of this as well. My accountant just recently contacted me to let me know that the annual report was due and that is when I realized the first letter was a scam and I should have contacted my accountant first. I do not have a copy of the letter unfortunately. May not be able to do anything about this but I need to report this with what little information I do have. This occurred in September 2018.

Type of a scam Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

This is a false product and a phishing letter -- Received a postal email with an "official looking" form entitled: "2018 - ANNUAL REPORT INSTRUCTION FORM" and the letter had a warning that NJ Law requires every corp, llc, lpa must timely file an annual report every year. If [our company name], does not file an annual report for 2 consecutive years, you may be at risk of penalties and fines.

It does fairly warn on the form that: "WORKPLACE COMPLIANCE SERVICES IS NOT A GOV'T AGENCY AND DOES NOT HAVE A CONTRACT WITH ANY GOV'T AGENCY TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE", however, they had the correct LLC formation date, registered agents name of our company, and correct address.

So in summary, for $50 (fee to the sate of NJ), and $95 ('processing fee"), a total of $145, Workplace Compliance Service will have you fill out this form, get a whole bunch of additional information about you and your company; and do who knows what with this information???

This invoice looks like a tax document. I states that the Indiana law requires every domestic filing entity to a Business Entity Report every two years. If, the name of your LLC, doesn't file a report within 60 days of this due date, it may be at risk for penalties. It has our LLC name and address on the paper. with a state fee of $32 and a processing fee of $75. I came in an envelope with no return address and under the stamp was printed SOLICITATION, NOT A GOVERNMENT DOCUMENT. On the top of the page says SOLICITATION FOR SERVICES 2018- BUSINESS ENTITY REPORT INSTRUCTION FORM. It looks legit until I did some digging on the internet and found this is happening in a lot of states. Scam was on every website.
