SCAM Alert! Please pass it on.
Hideako Group (http://www. hideako.com ) http://morimura.co.jp/?lang=en (authentic site of fraudulent Hideako Group). is ONE of MANY dummy corporations (147 domains https://www.whoxy.com/company/1179425 ) tied in with a criminal organization Larino Enterprices/prises.
They have false employee profiles on social media (https://www.linkedin.com/in/alberto-blandi-43aa8565 ), and will attempt to recruit you to work for them collecting money via many different avenues. They will call you (if you give them a number, resume/cover sheet/social media) from numbers from the region of the dummy corporation like (+81 3 4577 3977) (it's a redirect or IP account) Always check the domain name registrant (https://www.whois.com/whois/hideako.com ) and verify it as well as proceed with any easy job offer without interviews with extreme caution.
You will ultimately receive an email from Baker Cedar of the Cedarton Group (http: / / cedartoninvestment.com/index.html ) desiring to pay you nearly a million dollars (of which you get $45,000). Make no mistake, this is a fraudulent website stolen from https://www.adgeco.com/ and is also a domain registered to Larino Enterprices. The scam is to deposit fraudulent checks through your account and send them the funds. It's a federal offense, and one you want no part of. I've already alerted the FTC.

Fraud and Scam Alert: Please be careful of fraud using the name of Nippon Koei or an agent of Nippon Koei
Recently we got information that a person using the name “Lee Cheung,” on behalf of Nippon Koei (“NK”) as its managing director, signed an agreement with another person in the U.S. The agreement deed says on the surface that NK delegated that person as our agent for matters such as communication and collection of payment with and from NK’s clients in the U.S. and Canada regions. We got another information that some business propositions relating to NK have been made by people using different names than “Lee Cheung.”
We NK and our group companies have NEVER entered into such an agreement, and a person named "Lee Cheung" has never been employed by nor had any position in NK or its group companies. We have never appointed agents for communication or payment collection with or from our clients in the U.S. or Canada region.
Please DO NOT respond, make any payment or disclose your personal or financial information to the person who names her/himself as the agent of NK in the U.S. or Canada region. Also, please do not respond or accept to unsolicited business opportunities for NK or its group companies from people or e-mail addresses you do not know or trust. NK or its group companies cannot accept any responsibility arising out of or in connection with such activities.
If you notice any suspicious activity, please contact our inquiry desk immediately and report to the nearest police.
Your understanding is highly appreciated.
