As with everyone else who has reported this SKS Associates retro billing scam, I too received a letter stating I owe $80.30, which includes tax processing and filling fees. I bought a sign for my business from Signtronix, which is a rip-off in itself, in July. I closed that business in October I had paid off the sign in September and satisfied the lease with Northern Leasing. Fortunately for me, I had closed that bank account after that last payment cleared. I contacted the bank about this and they told me since that I had closed my account so long ago that it didn't even show up in their on-line records. So, they won't be robbing me of the money, and I would think that if they try an ACH transaction on an account that has been closed for so long it should trigger a fraud alert or something with the bank. I'll be watching this closely and will file formal complaints with my state's AG, as well as the NY AG and the BBB.
