Beware Unofficial Websites or Communications by Mail

Starting a new company can be very exciting. Unfortunately, there are scammers out there just waiting to prey on that excitement. Very often after someone creates a new corporate entity, they will receive notices claiming to offer certified copies of their corporate filing or annual corporate minutes forms.
