Yesterday I got an e-mail from Hirohito Sumida President of Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd offering me 5% commission plus $5000 per month. Today they forwarded to me the contact for Bruce Anderson at Higgs and Scott Investments. Someone called me tonight but I had company and could not take their call. It was a man. He said that the office would close and that he would call back tomorrow. I have a suspicion that this is a scam

I have received the same attempt through LinkedIn initially then by follow up threads via email. The Supplier and creditor named was GODO Steel of Osaka, Japan and the invoice was signed (forged) by its president, Takayoshi Meiga. The customer and receiver of the shipment named is Biggs And Scott Investments of Regina (purchasing agent Bruce Anderson and the unpaid amount to be collected was $547,000.00 CAD. The offer was for me to become North America collection agent. The inviting party was supposedly President Meiga and the message was written in poor English to suggest some authenticity. From one email to the next the writing style (or the imitation of limited English command) was inconsistent. The scammer, impersonating Mr, Meiga said that I would have to be approved by their executive committee. I submitted my application and got acceptance less than 14 hours later which would have required their executive committee to meet and decide within minute of their first morning hour of business. When the party impersonating Mr. Meiga of GODO Steel could not answer all of my questions, in particular, the INCO Terms of the shipment, I called the US Dept. of Trade who checked out the company in Japan. GODO Steel and Mr. Meiga are large, respectable and in good standing in Japan. The Emails of follow up continued with urgency to get the funds collected. Meanwhile I called GODO Steel and found out from the employee who answered my call (to the phone number from their website) clarified that they do not do any business in North America.
At that point (and I still believe) I determined that it was a money laundering scheme with collaborating parties impersonating the purchasing agent of Biggs And Scott investments and the president of GODO Steel. They planned to send money from the supposed customer to my account whereupon I would subtract my 5% commission and $3000/month expenses and then send the balance by wire to the supposed steel company. They did not indicate a concern for currency exchange rates at any point of transfer nor did they pursue any due diligence vetting me before proposing the first half million dollar transaction. The scheme would have allowed the funds to come from a large developer in Regina to me, a respected and honest broker in Utah, then to be forwarded as a balance (reduced by a reasonable commission) to the party impersonating the Steel company in Japan. Thus the funds would have, to that extent a fairly “clean looking” trail. I played along with their game (without pursuing the collection) right up to the point of telling them that I would be setting up a separate bank account to receive the funds. (I didn’t think they would expect me to receive the funds co-mingled with my other businesses.) The quick response, with no allowance for 14 hour time difference, was that no separate account would be necessary.
To all of you readers out there, acknowledge that whether times are especially bad or especially good, there will be those with some intelligence who follow a different ethic. With the help of the internet, they can attempt their insidious schemes hundreds of times before getting caught and the probability that someone (just one) will fall for it is rewarding enough for the effort and risk. The risk? The US FBI has been alerted to this particular fraud scheme by myself if not others, but the auto reply was dismal, indicating the thousands of cases to be investigated every month. I hope there is less of this in Canada and that the authorities there can actually process this and get to the root of it, tracing the leads and prosecuting the guilty. We each have our responsibility to police the internet solicitations that come to us for our own sake (if not for the protection of others) without waiting for our tax dollars to do the job for us.

Call the supposed supplier in Japan to verify the claim of Canadian rep, but do not use the Japan phone number provided by the scammer. Google the supplier firm and check the phone numbers from the data bases that come up in addition to the official website of the company. Make the long distance call during their business hours and consider the long distance charges par of your “scam insurance” cost.

Yes, I just received the very same solicitation via LinkedIn from GODO Steel. From the same name even. The curious thing is that when I searched for the company, the scanner had an email address with the same domain. Wonder how they are getting around that. Regardless, my alarm bells went off within one second of the “offer” and I never considered it to be real but am, of course, infinitely curious as to how they manage to pull this stuff off.

They got a new name. I’ve been contacted by a company named Hiroshi Yasu medical supplies to collect 895 900$ from Bruce Anderson at higg and Scott investment firm whose website doesn’t exist (ref: [email protected]).

I found Higgs And Scott Investments in Regina with a website that describes their real estate developments and lists their officers including Bruce Anderson as a financial officer. Ultimately and not having called them, I did not verify their involvement in the scam. I would not have called Anderson first in case he was an accomplice and using his position without the President’s knowledge. Perhaps you should make the call, but don’t use any number provided to you by the “steel company” or any other fronting entity.

So, I got an email the other day from “Misaki X-Ray Equipments” and they said they found me on LinkedIn. I truely thought it was real because I signed up for LinkedIn premium where employers can contact me whenever.
Anyways, I emailed them back because they said that I can earn some money if I am a representative for them in Canada. Once I emailed them back, they promptly responded back with a form I needed to fill out and send back with my information (Full name, house, company name, phone number) and I thought that to protect myself, I will create a privacy agreement so they couldn’t release my information. So, I sent them the privacy agreement before I responded back with my information. They sent it back signed and with a witness signature. All is well, so I sent them my information.
Next, they sent me the contract for employment. It stated that I will be a representative for “Misaki X-Ray Equipments”, earn 7% commission on every debt collected and earn a monthly salary of $5,000.00. I thought this was a damn good deal, so I signed the contract and sent it back. After a day or so, they emailed me back and said that they talked about my employment in a meeting and that they said I am now a representative and to email them back on when I received the email. So I did, and they promptly emailed back saying that they had my first delinquent to deal with, they sent over an MXE agreement and an invoice. I was to email Bruce Anderson at Higg & Scott Investments in Regina Saskatchewan that he owed MXE $789,500.00. I first asked if I could have a company email so that it will look more official, and then they called my phone stating that they told Bruce ahead of time that I am a rep of MXE and that this is his email. THEY CALLED MY PHONE, at that point, I literally thought this was a true deal. I was so excited to meet the riches.
So, I emailed Bruce about all this and I was curious to see what they invested in on their website. I went to Higgandscott.net (that’s what Bruce’s email was) and nothing to be found. No web page, nothing.
So, in conclusion, after all this, I sent a nasty email back to MXE stating that what they’re doing is wrong, and I thought that this was legitimate and that the $5000 per month will let me do things that I could’ve never imagined. I could actually put my grandparents into a nice nursing home, and finally repay my parents back for all the times I borrowed money (I’m a grown adult, I thought this would’ve been nice). But, no. It was all a scam.
To all who got into this trouble, DO NOT OPEN OR CASH THE CHECK THEY SEND IN THE MAIL! You’ll get into a bunch of shit that is hard to get out of.
And, if you’re ever curious as to if the emails that people send about jobs, protect yourself, make a privacy agreement so that if it ever happens to be a scam, they can’t release your information, and if they do, you have a signed document that can prove things.

It appears the same scam has now evolved to include Alpine Electronics and their president and CEO Toru Usami who connected with me on LinkedIn. It appears Bruce Anderson at HiggandScott Investmemts is the common thread in all these scams!

I got the identical Misaki offer as Steven above. I phoned to make sure I was talking to real people, did the internet research on the Misaki Xray website, signed an MOU, and as asked to recover the $789,000 from Bruce Anderson at Higgs and Scott….I thought this was the real deal. Feeling like this was too good to be true, I an internet search and fortunately found this website before I went any further. They just called me back this morning to see if I had contacted Bruce, I told them I was out.

I just got contacted from GODO STEEL very same scam ( that I realize later ) with the offer of a percentage after depositing a check in to my bank.
I receive the check via Xpresspost mail from Bruce Anderson. I return the check to the sender ( so I lost $ 20.00 ), voided.
So this is the end of it.
BE AWERE !!!

I got the similar communication via Linkedin. This time was Mr. KeiiChi Nakagaki – Senior VP of Chidoya Steel of Japan. They offered $3000 per month plus 5% commission of each transaction for individual representative or $5000/month plus 7% for company representative. The offer was however emailed to me via Gmail. My first reaction was to ask him to consider me to set up a separate business bank account under the name of – he refused. Then an agreement was sent out to me signed by Chidoya Steel’s president. again via KeiiChi’s email account. I forwarded the agreement to my accountant, who told me that it is suspicious and suggested me to be careful and look into more. I then request KeiiChi to resend the agreement via Chidoya official company email address. He refused but asked me to sign back the agreement so that I can be contracted in. He said that I could check out Chiyoda’s customer care centre for reference:
Customer :#30382
Bruce Anderson
Higg And Scott Investments
Tel: 1-306-413-0039
Email: [email protected]
I then decided not to go further and believe this is a scam. I searched the Internet for higgandscott and found this website discussion. Thanks.

Was contacted through phony Linkedin referral to be part-time CDN Rep. for N-Tech Co., in Japan, by M. Kioshi. Offer was $5K/mt. + 5% commission. This is a cheque-cashing scam involving Kioshi & his colleague in Saskatchewan, Bruce Anderson, with Higg & Scott. Don’t even think of it.

Interesting stream, I have just received the same scam using the information
Bruce Anderson at Higg and Scott Investments with the same telephone and email address.

I further suspected money laundering. I am happy that I decided to Google Higg and Scott otherwise i would not have found this site.

I also recieved a contact via Linked-In from Hoya Corporation. The domain they send (hoyacorporation.org) forwards to the real Hoya website, but that domain is actually registered in Nigeria.
They went as far as sending us a very official looking MoU and all. Fortunately when they start asking for bank details I caught the red flags and dug deeper.

I got a similar offer from Fanling Medical Equipment, LTD from Japan, Mr Tamaga. The same terms $5,000 + 5% commission. I am investigating this deal since it seemed a little odd. They are supposed to send me the first deal. It seems curious to me why they would want me to deposit a check in my account only to transfer the money to them. I see how it works with them sending bad checks.

Fanling Medical Equipment, LTD appears to have a legitimate site from Japan, but a quick search on their site registration tells a different story. The site has a U.S. mask, but originates from China. The deal I was offered was $45,000 + 5% commission on $3,200,000.00 worth of product. Seeing as they offer no major medical equipment, such as an MRI machine etc, it would seem that at $3,200,000 would equate to thousands of buyers nationwide. Further research showed that no medical authorities had heard of Fanling which immediately states that these figures were a lie.
As part of the scam, I received a well organized PDF that had a great logo for Fanling. The document explained the company and their situation needing a debt collection agency to assist them. I then received another email requesting personal and company information, and suggesting that no future correspondence would be in person.
The site: fanlingmedical.com
Their number: +81 645 605 031
The persons contacting me: Mr. Yoniko Tagawa, Helen Suere, and Tha Shee.
Don’t fall for scams. They are very easy to see through.

Another one from Fujitsu Medical and X-Ray here. The client was referred by Jay Sharma, who works for Citius Minds. According to Jay, his company provides patent portfolio management services and does not handle contract claims, which is why he was referring the client to me. However, based on his website and the documents he forwarded from Fujitsu, I was pretty certain it was a scam. Now with these comments, I am certain of it.
So, in addition to Fujitsu, also watch out for referrals from Jay Sharma at Citius Minds.
