Beware of Corporate Mailer Scam

LARA, Michigan’s Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs, recently warned Michigan business owners to be aware of mailers that were recently sent out to various companies around the state.  The mailer looks like an official government document and asks that the business pay $125 to file its annual reports.  However, the mailer is not an official document, and is a scam.  If you have received such a mailer, do not respond!  You should either ignore it, or report it to the US Postal Service as mail fraud, or report it to the Michigan Attorney General’s office.

For more information, see LARA’s official press release:
