Company Registry 

INSTAGRAM of the SCAM ARTIST(S) HERE: @kittaxsmith and @owen.knows

An article written by Dan Neidle titled, "Scam of the Day: The Fake “Company-Registry” Preying on New Companies" mentions the name of the scam artist ("registered agent") of Company Registry LLC. Her name is Kitta Sourinphoumy (maiden name), also known as Kitta Elefante (prior married name). She now goes as Kitta Smith, married to her creep husband, Owen Smith where they reside in Miami Florida peddling knock-off elliosa pilates grip socks, among other things they do for avenues of income. She has had many failed "businesses". (if drop-shipping cheaply-made fast fashion items from China on Shopify can be considered a "business") Looks like Kitta and her husband Owen use the money they scam other people out of for lush vacations, for her to get plastic surgery (bad plastic surgery, from the looks of it-) and for them to both live a specific kind of "luxury" lifestyle. At least, they certainly emulate it online.

This so called company is a notorious SCAM and the people behind it should be prosecuted for FRAUD.

Read Dan Niedle's expose, which is available online.

Scam company pretending to be official HMRC etc.

Scam company which my accountant informed. Do not pay.

Scam - be aware

I recently registered a new company and within a few days I get a letter from these guys claiming I need activate my "Secure Vault". What a really bad attempt to scam people. This this clowns need to revise there badly written nonsense to say "his majesty" and not "her". MUPPETS!

If possible I would give a zero (or even -5!) This is a non UK company that I am guessing are trawling the Public company register daily for newly formed UK companies and then sending them a letter that looks like they have done their best to look "official" and implies that you need to act immediately or you will lose a service that you require. Also their domain using a ".org" to further the implication they are either non-profit or an official UK organization which they are definitely not. Dont bother reporting them, or wasting more time on these energy vampires. There are no contact details on the letter, nor their website (not even an email address), on which the registrant seems to be "General Digital Pte Ltd" which is a marketing company seemingly based in Singapore. My advice, AVOID!

Scam

Received a letter from them pretending to be a government body and asking for a payment. They don't even deserve 1 stars but can't select anything less than that.

I’m an accountant and this company sent a letter to one of my clients.

This appears to be an overseas company that is mascarading themselves as a government body and it is my view that they are intentionally targeting newly incorporated companies with their fraudulent letters sent to arrive at the same time as other genuine correspondence.

Their sole aim is to dupe new directors into paying for an unnecessary service and bizarrely they still offer an irrelevant first year COVID-19 discount in a failed attempt to portray themselves as a decent company.

FRAUD!!!!!!!!! DO NOT SEND MONEY!!!!!!!!

scam - do not need to pay this

Scam - bin the letter and carry on with your life

Set my company up as a limited company and immediately received this letter. It's very dodgy. Do not pay this

Companies House Website:

Letter from ‘Company Registry’ asking for payment
We’re aware of a scam letter from a sender called Company Registry asking for payment to confirm company details and activate a secure vault.

This is a scam - do not send any money to the bank account shown.

If you receive a suspicious letter, contact us immediately on 0303 1234 500. Never pay any money to the sender.

Fraudulent letter received with ‘next steps to ensure your company records are secure’. They pressurise with demanding language and urgency for payment ASAP. Glad I checked on here for other people’s experience of the this company and will bin letter.

Utterly despicable! Preying on newly incorporated business owners, sending a worded to mislead and misdirect new business owners into signing up and paying a registration fee.

Clearly a scam. Letter sent out to newly registered businesses (these details are in the public domain so they exploit it) . There are no contact details, address or any other identifiable info on their letters. They word their letter to appear official and give you a url to pay. DO NOT PAY A PENNY - THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT, LEGAL OR OTHERWISE TO PAY THEM ANYTHING. Reported to Trading Standards

They are trying to defraud people who register businesses by insinuating you need to complete registry of your business by paying them money. This is definitely not the case. The small print on their fraud attempt letter does make this clear so they obviously know the scam style tactics they are using. Despicable scum.

A TOTAL SCAM - AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.
Pretending to be an official Government organisation to extort new companies. "Action Requested: Confirm Your Company Details"

This company is a scam. Do not pay them a penny

More details from the good people at Whitefield Tax if you goole it
