austin3515 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Has anyone ever heard of this company before? They sent out what appears to be a mass mailing to the clients of a particular large TPA (not us!) making all sorts of accusations and recommending that they fire the offending TPA forthwith. Believe me, the accusations are not scandalous. My 2nd or 3rd thought was "scam?". But there is zero contact information on the letter (it merely lists the county and state as Camden County New Jersey). It does not request any information nor response. And here is the kicker - they cc'ed (at least according to the letter) 6 or 7 different field offices of both the IRS and the DOL. I googled the company but found nothing. We're going to forward the letter as a courtesy to the named TPA (a firm that we "know of"). Austin Powers, CPA, QPA, ERPA
Bill Presson Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Interesting. I have not heard of them, but will be curious if anyone else runs across this. William C. Presson, ERPA, QPA, QKA bill.presson@gmail.com C 205.994.4070

shERPA Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 There is no such business by that name coming up on the NJ Secretary of State business entity search website. I carry stuff uphill for others who get all the glory.
BG5150 Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 Can you share the correspondence? Even privately? I interested in seeing it, for a couple reasons: 1) I'm curious, 2) to help prepare against something like this happening to my company. If shared privately, I will not further share it other than to the powers that be over here. QKA, QPA, CPC, ERPATwo wrongs don't make a right, but three rights make a left.
austin3515 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Posted January 8, 2015 Sorry... I had enough qualms about even posting the name! It's not my document. Scary thing is that I don't think there is anyway to stop it. Anyone with a Larkspur account can pull enough information to make labels for a good chunk of your clients and tell them whatever they want... Austin Powers, CPA, QPA, ERPA
