Companies House UK OK? No Way

Companies House
http://www.companieshouse.gov.uk/

Their web site explains what they do:
http://www.companieshouse.gov.uk/about/functionsHistory.shtml

Companies House's function is to register companies based in the UK and make that data available to verify those companies legitimacy.
The registrations can be performed through third party companies set up on the internet.

The problem is that scammers are now registering fake companies through those third party firms.

This opens the doors to all kinds of scams on the internet.

Sites like aa419.org rely on legitimate records to verify the legal existance of companies claiming to me registered with Companies House in order to get fraud sites closed down quickly.
Scammers quite frequently claim that on their fake sites.

Verification of this claim can be made through a legitimate third party.
Inquiries for this data must be from valid law enforcement agencies only.
Please leave a comment, which will not be published, with your contact information.
Thanks

Before I arrived I have driven to madness by self claimed Her Majesty.s Company House in Cardiff, Ireland, London and who knows where lese demanding £1500 for late annual account return from me,, To know how fake they are they are using \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\her \\majesty's stamp and envelopes to demand £1500 from me to be paid within 7 days or they send baliff to my address to get the money
I think I should have been taken to any court of Laws to show I have owned them any money.
I was feedback as I have already reported Legal enforcement.

Same here, I am asked to pay roughly $3000 within a week otherwise my assets are frozen.

The funny thing is this company is "awarded for excellence". NO GOVERNMENT AGENCY is awarded excellence.

“Government is not reason. It is not eloquence. Government is force; like fire it is a dangerous servant -- and a fearful master.” —George Washington, 1797.
