    As all others have said, this is a total shakedown. ******* customers into paying for free services. I didn't pay attention, thought I was clicking through to ******* to file an EIN. $339 fee for what is free to file on the real website. It's a shame these people can't put their creativity to use in constructive ways.

    Scam, I used this site to renew my passport. It seemed legit. I paid the fees and received an invoice for my purchase. I then got a text informing me that I have an email with steps to avoid any unexpected delays. the email stated that I didn't pay any government fees and gave me weird step by step instructions with several one-time use codes to use to pay more money. The email had also created an email for me with password for me to use.

    This company leads you to believe they are assisting you to to renew your passport and their wording on their website leaves you to believe you are paying for your new passport as part of the fee you pay them and then they email you to tell you that you paid them $243 for them to help you with the process and you have to pay an additional amount to get your passport. $243 for a few emails by deceiving customers is bad business!

    If I had understood that it would cost $182 to use their services I would never have used them. My understanding was that the $182 would go towards my passport fee. How can they charge nearly as much as the passport fee to support obtaining a passport? I would willingly pay @ $35.00 for such services, but no more. This is a scam business.

    Total scam, ein-federal-tax-id.com does not have a phone number on their contact page, even though they mention I can contact them by phone. After searching for Govt Assist LLC which is mentioned several times in their fine print, I find a number and call them, and hey say they are a different service and my order number is not in their system.This is misleading!

    This page is a scam. They took sensitive information like my name, address, SSN and they do not show their privacy statement before you enter the information.I am afraid they will use and information and stole my identity. They need to show down this page immediately.

    Shady company. Tried to apply for a FREE EIN number, got pushed to this site, was not asked to confirm any transactions, then see a charge for almost $500! This SHOULD BE ILLEGAL!! I would like my money refunded immediately!

    Total bait and switch! This place is a scam. Do not use them to renew your passport. They are just trying to steal your information and your money. Unfortunately they came up first in the ****** search for renewing your passport. In attempting to contact their customer service they do not respond.
