IMPORTANT CONSUMER ALERT ABOUT TAX AND ANNUAL REPORT SCAMS


The Division of Corporations recommends that consumers be alert to deceptive solicitations. Delaware legal entities should view suspiciously any correspondence, via regular mail or e-mail, that does not come directly from the State or the entity’s Delaware registered agent.

Examples of deceptive solicitations

The Secretary of State’s Office works closely with law enforcement to investigate deceptive solicitations. If a Delaware business entity received such a solicitation or sent payment as a result of receiving this solicitation, please complete a complaint form and contact the Consumer Protection Unit of the Attorney General’s Office at (302) 577-8600 or 1-800-220-5424.

Please contact the Delaware Division of Corporations at (302) 739-3073 if you have any questions or concerns about a solicitation.
