The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) requires most US businesses to report information to FinCEN about their owners. The CTA has led to a number of scams. Scammers have been sending letters to businesses. The fraudulent correspondence may be titled “Important Compliance Notice” and asks the recipient to click on a URL or to scan a QR code. Those e-mails or letters are fraudulent. FinCEN does not send unsolicited requests. Please do not respond to these fraudulent messages, or click on any links or scan any QR codes within them.
If you have questions on the CTA or need assistance, please contact us at Schloemer Law Firm, S.C., 262-334-3471.
