Description

I received a letter in the mail in an envelope states in the top right corner that it's been presorted and has paid first class mail postage from Hicksville, NY with permit no. 842. The envelope included a form titled Form 4533 (Rev. January 2025) for Mandatory Beneficial Ownership Reporting from the "Annual Records Service." The form requested a check or money order for $119.25 be mailed by the "respond by" date or an additional $500 fee will accrue for each day past the deadline. "In addition, they can be fined up to $10,000 and/or face up to 2 years of imprisonment." The form also asks for the target's "Employment Identification Number (EIN)", full name, number, and address, as well as any other "Beneficial Owners." There is no number, website, address, or other contact information on the form. A return envelope was provided with the address: Annual Records Service 1030 15TH ST NW #366 WASHINGTON DC 20005-1503.
