Elon Musk PAC being investigated by Michigan secretary of state for potential violations

• A political action committee backed by Elon Musk is being investigated by the Michigan secretary of state's office.
• Musk said he created and helped fund the America PAC, which is supporting Donald Trump.
• To be sure, legal experts could not point to any state laws that may have been broken by the PAC.

A political action committee backed by billionaire Elon Musk is being investigated by the Michigan secretary of state's office amid efforts to collect voter data.

Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has said he created and helped fund the America PAC, which is supporting former President Donald Trump. Musk has a net worth of over $225 billion, according to Forbes.

The committee has been acquiring detailed voter information from those living in Michigan and other battleground states after people submit their personal data through a section on the PAC's website that says "register to vote."

After clicking on the "register to vote" tab on America PAC's website, users in states like Michigan can submit a ZIP code, address and phone number. People with a Michigan address are brought to a page that says "thank you" and asks users to "complete the form below" to help wrap up the voter registration process. As of Sunday afternoon, though, there was no other form to complete below the words "thank you."

"Every citizen should know exactly how their personal information is being used by PACs, especially if an entity is claiming it will help people register to vote in Michigan or any other state," a spokeswoman for the Michigan secretary of state's office said in a statement to CNBC.

"While the America PAC is a federal political action committee, the Department is reviewing their activities to determine if there have been any violations
