Description

I recently received my LLC for my business and within a week I received a letter from ESCS. The letter looks very official and states that my business is obligated under Federal Law to display a labor law poster for a fee of $108. It goes on to explain that failure to comply will result in fines STARTING at $7,000 per violation and can toll lawsuits leading up to $250,000 in legal fees if I fail to purchase and display the poster. There is a deadline date on the letter and also if paying by credit/debit there is an additional fee. There are also QR Codes to scan which no one should scan these since these have recently been scams also. The return envelope that was included with the letter was addressed to AACS PO Box in Pembroke Pines, FL. The address on the letter is from ESCS PO Box at a UPS in Austin, TX. Since I have a corporate job in HR/Payroll, I know about these posters and am aware of the rules on displaying and complying with the Dept of Labor Laws. I know there are a LOT of scams out there and I would have looked this up anyway to see what it was about. It looks like they have been doing this for 5 plus years so they are probably getting $$ from people thinking they will be fined if they don't pay. This letter is intimidating and it should be illegal to scare people into sending them money. I hope anyone that reads this was not scammed into sending these people money.
