Corporate Minutes Scam in the mail

Posted by taxguru on November 3, 2013

While I know that this scam has been aimed at Arkansas corporations, I am guessing that the scammers will also be doing the same phishing for suckers in other states.  In true scammer fashion, their website is as bland and nondescript as one can be, with no trace of the identities of the crooks behind it.  

 

From a Client:

Subject:  Annual Minutes Requirement Statement

Kerry ,

 
We received this letter yesterday and not quite sure if it needs to be addressed by us or not since we closed out the Corp. thought I let you look at it first . Please let me know what you think if this is something new for the Corp .
 
Thank You

 

My Reply:

That’s a complete scam that you can ignore.

Actually, I received two of those in the snail mail yesterday; one addressed to each of our corporations.

It looks like those scammers calling themselves Compliance Services got the list of all Arkansas corporations and sent them all those letters for their bogus “service.”  At $125 a pop, if they can get a few hundred suckers to fall for it, they will make some good money.
