Description

Was sent a quasi-official looking form stating that their organization was responsible for collecting information "PURSUANT TO THE UNITED STATES CORPORATE TRANSPARENCY ACT, ENACTED BY CONGRESS. The form asked for information about an LLC I own and then details about all of the beneficial owners of the LLC. They apparently got the information about the LLC from a public record repository or some other database that they paid for. They wanted $117.00 for processing.
