Homestead Exemption Application Filing Fee Scam Alert
Similarly, filing service companies send letters to business and trademark owners notifying them of upcoming deadlines and fees due to government agencies. These companies often operate under a name that sounds like an official government office, so it is easy to believe these letters require a response and payment. Often solicitation letters contain a notice that the company is not an official government agency, but it is not always easy to find or understand, especially if the letter looks like an official document.
Not all letters like these are solicitations or scams. Government agencies do send legitimate notifications and ignoring them can result in penalties like late fees and terminations, so it is important to read each letter you receive to determine whether it is legitimate. If you are unsure, please contact the attorneys at Waldron & Schneider for assistance. We can advise you regarding whether the fees or deadlines are accurate and whether you need to respond to the letter or if an alternate, more affordable method is available.
