Because my firm, KEYTLaw, LLC, is the statutory agent for 2,000+ Arizona LLCs and we form a lot of LLCs (448 in 2016) we get a lot of mail addressed to our LLC clients.  We get a lot of letters addressed to our LLC clients from Personnel Concepts.

If you get a letter from Personnel Concepts, throw it in the trash.  The letter looks like an official government letter because the sender wants to fool you into buying a labor poster your company doesn’t need.

A bona fide business poster company says this about these types of letters:

“All in One Poster Company, Inc would like to warn its customers as well as other small business owners to avoid mass mailer scams informing them that their labor law posters are outdated while pressuring them to purchase an overpriced product for their employee and business.  These mailers are false, misleading, deceptive and even threatening. . . . Even when posting is required, the individual notices are provided at no charge by the U.S. Department of Labor as well as various agencies within your state’s labor department.

See the 178 reviews on Yelp giving this company one star out of five stars and the 20 Facebook reviews that give the company 1.4 stars out of five stars.

Here’s the Personnel Concepts envelope.

 

What follows below is the actual text of the very official looking letter.
