All of this just happend to me too!  What a waste....They should put so much effort into a real job and EARN REAL Money...

Yup came to me through Trulia this guy or team of guys used the name "Wu Qian a Japan origin" funny enough-many misspellings and grammatical errors-dead give away just like the Nigerian Scammers wanted to buy $500k of property sight unseen...thank god for google and this site-had our broker and attorney fooled...

I am a Realtor in Louisiana, I recieved a e-mail from this Otake Iwao. I e-mailed him back and recieved other.This didn't sound right sound Goolge him and this is what I found out.  This guy is busy,maybe he get put OUT bussiness real soon.

Same story..same ol' Mr Jackson.  Only this time the "buyer's" name is Otake "something or other".  Trying to buy a $550k Soth Carolina property site unseen.  My understanding is that the attempt is to eventually have the "mark" mail back the difference in one of his overwritten checks.  Don't waste your time.  Just report to www.IC3.gov.

So glad I googled this phone number.  I received the email yesterday through Trulia.  Will warn others in the office.
