Scammer Email:digitalaudiovision@hawaii.rr.com, sales@himagesales.com

The scammer uses the physical address and phone number of the real company in his email. Those who call the company directly may be able to find out that this is a scam. However, those who respond directly to the above email addresses will end up communicating directly with the scammers. As we mentioned, scammers do not seek 100% response from the recipients of the email.

The actual company website of Himage is at www.himage.com, and not www.himagesales.com. Furthermore, the company name is no Himage International Limited. The company website wrote that the name of the company is “China Himage Corporation”.

Attached below is the full email from the scammers. Note that the scammers may use different location, or fake names in similar job scams claiming to be from Himage. We recommend not to reply to the scammer.
