      No matter their boilerplate response claiming that they are legitimate, this "company" is a scam operation that preys on the unknowing and the unobservant. My elderly, infirm sister handed me their mailing instructing me to pay it. I've seen it before and was able to avert her being taken for $115.50. Yes, of course, if you read it carefully, they are upfront. But they are literally banking on a certain percentage of people who don't (or can't) read it or understand it and will mail in the payment out of a sense of obligation. That's their business model. They prey on those who are trying to be responsible and don't know they're being cheated.Look at their address, and you might think it's in or near the City County Building. In fact, it's an anonymous box address at a *** store. No office. No phone number. Just someone slithering in off the street to collect the winnings. It's a percentage game just like scam emails. A certain percentage of people fall for it. A smaller percentage file a complaint with the BBB, and they issue a refund so they can skirt the law. It's still unethical. If they get 100 suckers a week, they make over $10,000. A half million a year collected from the unknowing. Shame on you, whoever you are.

      We, at Local Records Office, are a scam entity. We provide a service for lots of money wherein a consumer can obtain a copy of their Deed or other Record of Title when there are are ways to obtain it at little or no cost. We make it unclear that we are not a government agency or are associated with any governmental agency. We misrepresent our identity by printing our scam on official looking records. We are a illegitimate business entity with the name of Local Records Office, which advises the consumer that we deal with records, specifically Deeds or other Records of Title.There is nothing true, straightforward or transparent within which we operate our business. We make it unclear to the consumer that our letter is a solicitation and not a bill. The consumer is advised in poor English and ambiguous terms that they are under no obligation to pay for our service unless they accept our offer and request our service.Local Records Office We ****

      Total scam. Their name and letters are worded so you think they are an official government agency.
