GRRRRR.
I got a letter that looks very official, very government document looking. It is just some (expletives deleted) scammer company that is thinking I am stupid. They want me to send them $125 to renew my company name with the secretary of state. I do that myself for $21.
They want me to send them a extra 100 bucks, so that they are the agent in charge of my company name. I almost sent it to my business partner, just to set him off in a rage against them. He is pretty good at wasting their time and messing with their heads. It would likely just make some secretary working there cry.
At a former job in the photolab business we had a guy walk in in wearing workman overalls and carrying a clipboard. He walked right to the back, past several employees, and started looking at our fire extinguishers, and writing down something. I approached him and asked rather rudely, who the flock are you? I asked one of the other employees to close the door to the front, so he was trapped with us.
He was just a scammer that would walk into a business, look at fire extinguishers, and then present the secretary up front with an invoice for $200 for fire safety equipment inspection. He had no authorization to be there, and I asked another employee to call 911 and report a attempted robbery. The guy's eyes got big and he said he was not a robber. I said BS, that is just what you are doing back here were the sign says employees only. I took his clip board and threw it in the trash, and escorted him to the back door and told him to GTFO and if he ever comes back he will leave in handcuffs.
I hate scammers and thieves.
