We’ve gotten two of these now.

Business Filings Division SCAM

In short, it’s a scam. Do not send them money. While you do need to file a Statement of Information with the state for your LLC, you only need do it once every two years (at least in California) and the cost is somewhere around $25-30.

It all looks very scary, and on the back there’s many warnings about penalties and how they’re gonna kill your puppy or something.

Tell the USPS and BBB (California already gives this company an “F”).

Also contact your state AG, which can’t work on your behalf, but may keep data for a class action to shut these scammers down.

Update: the State of California has a page up concerning these fools.
