Officials are warning Washington business owners about a fake letter circulating that claims to be a business registration bill.
A letter recently sent to a business in Edmonds requested $121.86 be sent to an Olympia post office box by July 31 and warned that its “state annual report will not be filed until payment is received,” according to a news release from the Washington Secretary of State’s Office.
The letter does not mention the Secretary of State’s Office or include its logo, which is on all legitimate official correspondence.
