INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita said he's working with
federal authorities to determine who is responsible for letters
that cite a fictitious state law and ask businesses for a $125 fee.
Rokita said the letters look like they come from an official
government source but were not sent by his office's Business
Services Division. The return address on some of the letters goes
to a box in a Mailboxes, Etc. store near the Statehouse.
The letters ask businesses for a $125 fee for processing a
company's annual minutes. The letters include a disclaimer that
specifies the offer is not being made by the government. Still,
Rokita worries that businesses may be confused by the form and is
urging them to ignore the letters.

State's Web site.
