Recently got a call from this number.  no idea who it is.

It possibly may work this way... After sending the check, the buyer decides he can't make the trip or says he bought another property and wants a refund minus escrow fees for their initial troubles.  If an escrow company doesn't verify funds have cleared and refunds the money, the scammer just made a lot of money.

The names are the same, but the #'s are different ,one is+ 815999001022 and Paul Jackson 416-824-1768.This didn't sound right to me, so I went on line and typed in his name Otake Iwao, now I am glad I did.All this info came up on him. Looks like he a busy guy.

Same contact from Otake Iwao to purchase a home in Ohio for $380,000 cash with $155,000.00 dn payment & escrow. How is this scam suppose to work? Any body figures it out please comment.

I received a email from a Wang Xinhua in China very similar - he was retiring and moving to Portland Texas.  I even spoke to Mr. Xinhua in CHINA - Exactly the same MO  full price offer for a home - Mr. Xinhua was informed a wire or a cashiers check was needed  - a check arrived 2 weeks later from Intact - NO RETURN ADDRESS for $183,000 from a bank in Canada - AND YES this is a SCAM - the address of the bank in MIS-SPELLED - the check is NO GOOD-    
DON'T LET these people SCAM you - Our title company did a great job -  they discovered it was a FAKE.

Received exactly the same info as Dave - Otake Iwao , otakeiwao@aisa.com through his 'broker' Paul Jackson, pauljackson@financier.com, Account Mgr at Financier Management, 1-416-857-2876 Toronto, Ontario for cash property purchase.
We have received two cashier's checks: the first on Stirling Bank TX and today a second from Intact Financial Corp in Montreal QC. Suspect this is as before. Stirling Bank check was bogus and they are investigating. Will contact Intact next week.
Received a call from 'Paul Jackson' confirming mailing of the check. Also the stub with the check  stated "we advice you to send email to pauljackson@financier.com  immediately after you have  receive this payment notify our verification department.  Failure to notify us via email will render this Instrument void. We prefer communication via email-notification and acknowledgments of the payment received in English.   Paul Jackson  Account Manager  Tel: 1-416-857-2876" (sic)

Message or Question:

   Sir/Madam,

     I am Mr. Yang Hua the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) CMEC LTD. I am about to retire and want to relocate to Hawai in the near future. After searching the Internet for a reliable Real Estate Agent, I found your firm and I have decided to contact you for a negotiation to buy my permanent home.

    I need a 2- 4 bed room home or apartment of 250,000. - 600,000.00USD in nice neighborhood and anywhere in Hawai.  The home will be a cash buy and I will visit Hawai for viewing the property but before that I would like my stock broker in Canada to send the money to your firm via a lawyer/solicitor.

   If you have property with similar description, Please contact me-forwarding your listing and your Solicitor/Lawyer complete information to enable me get in contact with my stock broker.

Note that the provisions of your written attorney-client retainer agreement will control over our transaction.


Kindest Regards,


Mr. Yang Hua

NB:  Please contact my stock broker Mr. Paul Jackson for more info: 1-416-857-2876

Mr. Hua:

Thank you for the $500,000 USD check forwarded to me by Mr. Paul Jackson (your "Canadian stock broker") and made to look like it was written against the account of a Canadian stationery company (Enterprises Dominion Blueline Inc.) with the Royal Bank of Canada.

Your connections are indeed global:  You claim to be the CFO of a company that seems to be Chinese (CMEC LTD) who is sending me e-mails via what appears to be a DSL Internet connection in Germany (fmmailgate05.web.de) from an e-mail address associated with what seems to be an employment company in Spain (administrativos.com) with an intent to buy real estate in Hawaii.

Ahhhhh, but it appears you are also interested in real estate in some other locations ...

I received a $150,000 cheque from Paul Jackson at Dominion Blueline as well, on behalf of Frank Fitzman.  He emailed me saying he wanted to purchase my home in Panama, so he had the cheque sent directly to my lawyer there, who attempted to cash it.  The bank in Canada confirmed it was counterfeit and now my lawyer is pursuing him.

I guess this means you won't be making that trip to Hawaii to close a real estate deal here, huh?!  Gee, and the FBI, the State Attorney General, some members of the Honolulu Police Department and I were looking so forward to meeting you in person.  Is it alright that we're keeping your check?  Something was mentioned about DNA samples ...

It's been fun, but I am ready to pursue some other forms of Internet entertainment now.

"Keeping the REAL in Real Estate"

I received a $150,000 cheque from Paul Jackson at Dominion Blueline as well, on behalf of Frank Fitzman.  He emailed me saying he wanted to purchase my home in Panama, so he had the cheque sent directly to my lawyer there, who attempted to cash it.  The bank in Canada confirmed it was counterfeit and now my lawyer is pursuing him.  The stupid thing is, he never asked me for money, or to pay for his trip or anything, so not sure if he forgot because he is running 500 of these at a time, or what the deal is.  The email address for Paul Jackson no longer works and the 416 # is out of service.  Idiots...who has time for this crap??

I HAVE RECEIVED THE SAME LETTER WITH THE SAME NAMES, THEY SAID MR. YANG HUA WANTS A HOUSE IN DR. BUT THEY SENT ME A CHECK AND THE NAME WAS UNDER THE NAME OF DOMINION BLUELINE INC., .LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE DID YOU DID, PLS CONTACT ME. PILYLLUVERES@GMAIL.COM
