Business Scam: Annual Minutes Disclosure Statement

There's a warning in Colorado for Business Owners. A scam letter is being sent to business owners across the state telling them to renew their dues. The letter contains some misspellings and grammatical errors, which can be a tip-off.
The document is called the Annual Minutes Disclosure Statement and says you have to remit the money by Monday, Feb. 9. The "bill" is supposed to be paid by check and mailed to a PO box.
Someone ran this same scam last year, according to the Secretary of State's office.
Anyone who receives an Annual Minutes Disclosure Statement renewal notice is supposted to contact the secretary of state by writing to business@sos.state.co.us. You can also call 303-894-2200, and press 2 for the business division.
