    I've posted before. The scammers used "Hiroshin Kiko" and then some matahari sounding female's name.
    They aren't too bright as they have used a canadian email/server
    and mailed a document from Canada.
    Anyone know how to track them down in Canada?

    to follow the above, a "certified check" in the amount of $450,000 was sent to my office. It was from Scotia Bank Canada. I was travelling to Canada, so I took it to Scotia Bank and they said it was not their check and it was from a non-existent account. So they have committed a criminal act -- check forgery
