Promote their website under the names www.hermeris.com, www.gov-tax.com, www.federalpapers.com.
They charge $128 for filing your Federal TAX ID / EIN Form on the same IRS system that you can file on for FREE!
Beware that they are NOT affiliated with the US Government in any way.
They prey on individuals who are searching the internet for help in acquiring Federal TAX ID / EIN numbers for their businesses.
They use the URL's www.gov-tax.com, www.federalpapers.com to appear as though they are government agency. They also use fonts and verbage on their site to look like a real goverment agency to further mislead small business owners.
You have to read the fine print at the bottom of the page to find out otherwise.
They do NOT state their fees up front. If you start the filing process and try to back-out they will still charge you a $50 cancellation fee.
Total RIP-OFF
They use the following key search words, federal tax id, federal tax id number, tax id number, federal number, employer identification number, fed tax id, ss 4, ss-4, ss4, employer id. And have the #1 search ranking on Google.
