Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird is warning business owners about fraudulent links from questionable sources regarding Corporate Transparency Act registration. Criminals are reportedly creating fake websites to trick Iowans into paying unnecessary fees for registration, which is free. To protect themselves, Iowans are advised to ensure they use trusted government websites and to watch for misspelled URLs, which are often used to trick people into believing they are on the proper page. Business owners who suspect a scam are encouraged to contact the Iowa Attorney General’s Office at 1-888-777-4590 or file a complaint online using the link included with this story on our website. The Corporate Transparency Act is a federal law requiring most businesses to register their ownership information with the federal government.
