Inc. magazine's latest annual list of the nation's 5,000 fastest-growing private companies contains at least one typo.

The list put Cary-based L&S Retail Ventures, owner of the online greeting card store InvitationBox.com, at No. 2,997. But that was based on revenue growth using 2008 revenue of $1.7 million.

The 12-employee company's revenue last year was actually $2.7 million, which would have pushed up L&S to No. 1,579.

CEO Jon LaNasa noticed the mistake when he received a copy of the magazine in the mail Wednesday and checked the data online. He called Inc. immediately.
