Home Suspicious/Fraudulent Offers Money Transfer/Mule Offers |
| Hino Motors Ltd. |
| Saturday, 18 April 2009 | ||||||||
These guys are right down to business with the money mule language we have all become so familiar with. They spoofed the email address to make it look like it came from hinomotors.com but actually appears to have been sent from Costa Rica. And in the body of the message you are told he's from Malaysia. The hinomotors.com domain shows they're hiding through a registrar (BelgiumDomains LLC). The hino.co.jp domain is registered to Hino Motors Ltd. That might be a legitimate company and it could be the sender of this offer just threw it in for good effect, something we see a lot in other reported scams. This theory is supported by the fact that they want ou to respond to a free Yahoo email address instead of to a corporate email address. What a mess!Message text: HINO MOTORS LTD Lot P.T. 24, Jalan 223, Section 51A 46100 Petaling Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia visit our website: http :// www .hino.co.jp/j/index.html http :// www .hino.co.jp/j/product/index.html PAYMENT COLLECTION AGENT NEEDED URGENTLY.
