If you believe you have been a victim of a business scam or fraudulent filings, you should contact the Montana Department of Justice, Office of Consumer Protection at 406-444-4500.
The Montana Secretary of State also takes steps to prevent and address fraudulent business filings. This office works to protect Montana businesses from identity theft, deceptive mailings, and unauthorized filings intended to deceive or harm businesses. If you receive suspicious mailings claiming to be from the Secretary of State that request money or personal information, please exercise caution and verify the information with the Secretary of State’s office directly.
To report suspicious or fraudulent business activity related to filings with the Secretary of State, you can contact our office at [email protected] or 406-444-3665.
Together, these agencies help protect Montana consumers and businesses from fraud.
