Description
On 10/20/2025 I received two separate letters from the same "company", listed as "Business Posting Department" with a mailing address of 911 Central Ave., Suite 24-199, Albany, NY 12206 and another listed as the Business Resource Center with a mailing address of 911 Central Ave., Ste 24 PM#373, Albany NY 122206-1304. Both documents appear to purposely be constructed to look like official correspondence from New York State. The first, entitled "Certificate of Status Request Form", all but demands they be sent $87.25 (in my case), for them to send me a copy of a "New York Certificate of Status" for a PLLC I recently formed. The second all but demands $92.58 (in my case) to be mailed a copy of state and federal labor law postings. This letter directly implies not purchasing this may subject the business owner to substantial civil penalties.
