Below is a statement from Bill Herrle, National Federation of Independent Business/Florida Executive Director, on the passage of HB 661 on Business Filings:
“NFIB applauds the passage of HB 661, which will protect small business owners from becoming the victims of fraud.
“This bill requires the Division of Corporations to notify business owners when changes have been made to their corporate filings without their knowledge or approval. This will provide significant protections for small business owners against fraudulent activities and will go a long way toward thwarting the rising problem of business identify theft.”
