Description

I have a virtual mailbox and I noticed I had a form 5510 from Annual Reporting Service requesting $119.00 to file the Beneficial Owners Report. I was in process of paying it when I realized there was no address on the form. Because this was a virtual mail I did not see the return envelope and needed the address. When I searched Annual Reporting Service that is where I came across several sites and then the BBB saying it was a scam. Thankfully I didnt send it but when I opened my business June 2024 I received two similar notices. I did send that money for two things. One was a poster of the minimum wage and legal requirements that need to be posted for around $80 and a second one for a similar amount of money that I dont remember. I think those were scams too. Those mailings were the first things I received as physical mail after opening my business. Im a first time business owner so I assumed these things where accurate.
