Description

After creating an solo LLC in a different state, received postal mail from "business" in DC with official sounding name directing me to pay for a certain items. One was a certificate of good standing, and the other being labor posters. The labor poster letter includes the sentence, "Your business is required by Federal Law to post a current compliant labor law poster in the workplace." This is a definitive statement as though they have analyzed my specific business to make that determination. That seems to be a misstatement, if not a mistruth. I have no employees as I am the sole owner via an LLC. The other issues is that these posters can be ordered at no cost to employers from DOL. This is one of those scams where they try to look official, and have you pay for things you can get (if even needed which for me it is not) for free.
