As the title says, is there somewhere I can report such a case?
It seems that you can make a simple report on various websites, but when you get new details about the person you are talking to that are not on the web, it seems like it would be better to report it to the police or some other appropriate place. It seems that it is easy to report on each web site.
I know it's a mess, but I was hoping to reduce the scam as much as possible.

There it is.
The one that has nothing to do with the topic and has no advice, but seems to want to say something anyway.
I really don't need this.
I think there are a lot of people who want to know what to do or what kind of scams there are, because scammers try to cheat people in various ways. It has been a social problem for a long time.

Anyway, people who try to speed things up are suspicious.
As ↑ person wrote, people who say "do application and fee" without even seeing the room are scammers who are exploiting personal information and fee in detail.
Even if you ask them to show you the room first, they will say that they need to check if it is qualified, or they will come up with some other reason.
If you like the property, you may be tempted to... Some people become. There are often cases where people who think I am not cheated become the party who is cheated.

If you paid with a card or check, it seems that you should go to that bank because they will have proof of payment, whatever it was. I don't think it is very common in this day and age to pay with cash, but if you paid with cash, no bank will handle it. ( But this is my guess as a layman )

I went to the bank of the card I used when I made a purchase on the internet. Because the bank has a record of how much I paid to whom on XXXX day with that card. And I explained to them over the phone what I had done at that time, such as exchanging e-mails. There was no record online of the delivery of the purchase, so the bank's fraud department looked into it from there. The money was made up shortly after I told them I was a victim. The fraud department then said they would look into it. And if they found out that I had lied, they would seize the amount of money that had been made up. ( I think they said it was plus interest or a penalty ?. I didn't ask for details about that because I wasn't lying💦 ).

In Japan, there has been a lot of noise in the news related to the Unification Church
What surprised me was that former President Trump also sent a congratulatory telegram
to the Unification Church, and I also saw a video of it. All at once, I went from supporting Trump to
despising him. It's the end of the world that a man who was indirectly involved in a fraudulent organization is now seeking the presidency.

*****Correct spelling: NEGOTIATION
*****Did you write threats and intimidation in the sense of translating ? I translate it in Japanese as deal and negotiation.

By the way, a suitable occupation for you would be an English language student at an adult school.

#28 adult school,

You can tell from my text and the name of my post that it is a paradox or sarcasm
against Trump. The appropriate school for you, who can't see that, is kindergarten.
The correct phrase is
threat and intimidation, not threaten and intimidation. Moreover, this sentence of mine is not blackmail.
If it is blackmail, the English expression "extort" or "extortion" would be more appropriate.
If you too are going to ridicule the mere misspelling of someone's post, before you do so, you yourself
should go to an adult school and become an "English learning student".
Also, "English Language Learning Student" is not a profession. And while you're at it, go to a Japanese language school
and study Japanese harder.

It is a historical fact that politics and religion are closely related. Not only the Unification Church, but politicians will want to be associated with various religious groups, because they want to get votes.
I hope that this development will lead politicians to disassociate themselves from religious groups as a whole, maybe just the Unification Church, but that will be back in a few years.

HIsako-san

I have lived in a newly built condo in Kakaako.
Almost only Hawaii residents live there, so the lack of tourists
made it safer.

There were homeless people
in Kakaako Waterfront Park, but they seem to have been cleared out now.

My Kakaako condo had guest parking
which was convenient when friends came over, but I heard that Affordable condo doesn't seem to have
guest parking which is inconvenient.

I know LILIA is scheduled to be completed in Waikiki.

Do you plan to rent or buy ??

Guest parking issue, it would certainly be convenient if it were available
I am considering buying.

Kakaako is a new town and looks beautiful, but I don't know the status value of the land because I haven't studied it enough.
In Japan, an old but vintage condominium in Azabu or Yokohama has higher status than a new construction in a new town in Hachioji or Kawasaki.
Like that, I am cautious about that.

Tourists like Waikiki, but
Hawaii residents prefer Ala Moana and Kakaako
because they are more convenient.
Waikiki is less safe and almost all the condos are older, so
HOA fees will be higher.
I have lived in older condos, but I felt inconvenienced by frequent elevator and plumbing
inspections and long waits.

Some Affordable condos, as the name suggests, are owned by owners with income below Average
I don't know if they are safe or not, but I think they are not bad since they are Hawaii residents who can afford Mortgages.

I think you need to check with real estate to see if the view in front of you will be changed, etc. since new construction is scheduled to continue in the Ala Moana Kaka'ako area
I think you need to check with real estate.

Japan and Hawaii are completely different, so I don't think we can compare.

The good
-Many of the residents around are normal
-Amenities are excellent
-Convenient

The bad
-Sewer/ditch smell
-Public schools are not in a good school district
-Parking is horribly tight in some buildings

I think it is important to note that some of the newer condos also have to be sold for a significant amount of money again when you sell the property if it becomes an Affordable property.

I think real estate agents are more trustworthy and local people will explain things to you better than the giggly Japanese bubbly ladies in Mercedes Benz who deal only with Japanese people.

Thank you all for your help and information -

Actually, I went to look at 3 condos in Kakaako today. The real estate agent was a Japanese woman
who had helped me before. It was not a Mercedes Benz. lol

The rooms and pools were all nice !
What I noticed was that there were so many Chinese people living in all the condos. I don't mean to say that Chinese people are good or bad
I mean that there are many rich Chinese people ~.

Thank you, Condo.
Certainly not good to see in the school district. It will be one of the items to consider.


- I didn't know about the sewer/ditch smell, but I just called someone who knows more about it and
there are dozens of new condo buildings planned in the area and all the toilets and baths may not be able to drain in time with the current underground sewer lines.
So I hear that the smell of sewage in the city of Kaka'ako is becoming a problem.


It's a big purchase, I'll learn more.

Sorry, I will write briefly.

Cherry tomatoes, wakame seaweed, onion, kanikama, edamame, vinegar, ajipon, sugar, sesame oil
Just to dress.

This is a staple in our house.
It is better to cut cherry tomatoes in half to release the acidity and moisture inside.
As for the ingredients, anything that looks like it could be used in a salad can be added.

I will be traveling at the end of August to meet up with two people from other states and a friend coming from Japan in LA.
Therefore, we are looking for someone who is willing to drive their own car for the following itinerary.

The date is a weekday at the end of August.
We will let you know the detailed itinerary and the address of the hotel where you will stay after you contact us.

1 ) Pick up at LAX airport and go to Anaheim
We will pick up 2 people in the airport roughly around 10:00 am for international flight from Japan who will arrive at 9:00 am.
Go to the hotel near Angel Stadium.
Luggage will be two medium size suitcases + Hand luggage.

2 ) Shopping around Anaheim
2 more passengers will join you after 1 passenger arrives at the hotel = Total 4 passengers
You will go shopping at 2-3 stores including Japanese supermarket from the hotel near Angel Stadium. After shopping at a couple of stores near Angel Stadium, we will be taken back to the hotel.
Departure from the hotel and transfer ・ The tour will take 2-3 hours including shopping time, but
You will stay while shopping, so you will not be left driving during this time.
It is unlikely to exceed 3 hours from shopping to hotel, but if it does, we will pay $ 10 per 20 minutes.


I would be happy to do the above itinerary for a total of $ 150, cash and tip included.

Anyone, male or female, who has a car that can accommodate up to 4 people and is a safe driver.
Please note that you must be able to contact us on Line.
( 1 friend from Japan has no phone in the US )

By the way, we will lift and lower our own luggage, so you will not have to carry heavy luggage.


Please feel free to contact us
if you have any inquiries, or if you would like to have only one or two itineraries, or if you would like to negotiate the price.


Thank you very much.

*We have the same offer on Gig Work.

Exactly, you have a license for people coming from other states. If they rent their own car and split the cost of gas, it's cheap.
It's too much to ask to feel like a VIP with someone else's car and gas included at a low price.

I don't know if this will help you, as it is difficult for expatriates to open a new account in Japan now. When I was living in Japan, I got fed up with the high fees for money transfers from the US, so I opened a dollar deposit account at a bank. I would send money from my US bank (Citibank) to that dollar account in dollars. In that case, it is just a wire transfer fee $ 35 only. You then withdraw from the dollar deposit account in yen, but at the TTB rate of that day. ( Mitsubishi UFJ Bank ) If you have an account with Mitsubishi and you are a member of Global Direct, I believe you can open a dollar deposit account while living abroad, but I am not sure about this. Please check with your bank. Or, SMBC Trust Bank's overseas direct service may be able to do so, but again, please check with the bank. As far as I know, this method has the lowest exchange fee except for Wise.

Just a few days ago I returned from Narita by ZIP.

Checked baggage and carry-on baggage are all weighed.
I added the
value set ? which includes seat selection, one piece of checked baggage, and an in-flight meal, because it would have been more expensive if I had added the options separately.
I bought an amenity set with a blanket because I can't sleep if the cabin is cold
The cabin is relatively warm and I may not have needed it.
No drinks are served unless you order a meal, so once you get through baggage check
you might want to buy a drink.

I was in a similar situation. It's tough. I sympathize with you.

I used ZIPAIR. It was quite good. The price is probably 90,000-110,000 yen round trip including meals, checked luggage, and seat selection. I think it is linked to the fluctuation of the yen. Also, I think it is much more expensive on holidays and special days. When I boarded, most people had the meals they ordered. And since it was empty, everyone was using 3 or 4 seats by themselves. I didn't see anyone using blankets. It wasn't that cold. I really appreciated the free wi-fi and saw many people watching Netflix and such.

If you don't have checked luggage and don't want to select a seat, I think you can do without the package. But if you have checked luggage, I think it would be more economical to get the value package, which allows you to choose your seat and includes food. The meal and water are also included.

I used Zip

When I used it, I asked the CA to switch seats because for some reason other people were sitting next to me even though there were empty rattles around me.

All the meals were very salty and tasted only of salt. So I recommend you to bring snacks instead of in-flight meals.

Everyone slept on the plane using 3 seats next to each other. I didn't think it was too small, and I didn't feel inconvenienced at all.

I am a former patient myself who recommended Dr. Steven Tottori in a previous post here. I am in my late 30's.
I completed my orthodontic treatment with Incognito, which is the only backside braces that Dr. Tottori does on Oahu, and I am very happy with it.
I initially went for a consultation with the hope of getting Invisalign braces, but Dr. Tottori diagnosed that it was not indicated in my case. I cannot answer your question about Invisalign, but I would like to make a few comments after reading your posts.

・ "Invisalign even though I am over 40s"
You seem to think that Invisalign is not appropriate if you are over 40s. If so, you should tell your doctor so and ask him why he recommends Invisalign instead of other orthodontic appliances. Orthodontic treatment is a long-term process, and if there is any doubt or distrust, there will be a fear that you will not be satisfied with the final result.
After completing my orthodontic treatment, I felt that it is very important to have not only the skill of the doctor but also the "personal relationship" and "compatibility with oneself" because unlike general treatment, it is a long term treatment anyway. In my case, I was very satisfied because I had a great rapport with both Dr. Tottori and his staff.

・ Competitive quotes
If you have any doubts about Dr. Tottori's policy, why don't you apply for a consultation at another doctor's office as well and ask about other doctors' treatment plans?
I had consultations with four different doctors before finally deciding on Dr. Tottori. It was good to hear the diagnosis of different doctors so that I could understand my teeth alignment problem and how well I fit in with the doctor.
I told him that I wanted to straighten my teeth with Invisalign at first, but some other doctors recommended Invisalign, but I decided to go with Dr. Tottori because his treatment plan made the most sense to me and I trusted him.

・ Location of the clinic
I felt that the location of the clinic was also important, as I would need to visit regularly after starting treatment.
Dr. Tottori has an office in the Ala Moana Building, but he is generally only in the Ala Moana office every Thursday and every other Saturday, so there were times when the Ala Moana office was not open for emergencies or even on Thursdays. In that case, I had to go to the main office in Kapolei, which was inconvenient.

I wish you a satisfactory decision.

I am in my late 50's and I had mouthpiece braces at Smile Direct Club. I was supposed to have the treatment for 12 months, but when I was not satisfied with the results, they extended the treatment period at no extra charge. My child and I also had bedtime-only mouthpiece braces at Smile Direct Club, and my child had beautifully finished braces in 10 months. It seems to vary from person to person depending on the original teeth alignment, age, etc.

The price was about $ 1600 for the whole process with a friend of mine during the referral campaign, but I think the price is higher now. I had the braces only at night, so there was no pain or hindrance at all. Now that my braces are finished, I still sleep with retainers at night only.

I used to straighten with Invisalign.
As an adult, of course.
I paid $5000 plus total.
The total duration is about a year.
Actually, a long time ago, when I was in elementary school, I had a setback because of the pain of adjusting the orthodontic appliances
Invisalign doesn't look bad and you can brush your teeth properly,
I recommend it for that reason.
I am very happy now that I have the teeth I wanted.

As per topic, I am unhappy with the store donkey
and wanted to ask.
I went shopping at the donki kaheka store and as I was leaving the alarm went off.
? I wondered why ? the alarm went off thinking I had stolen.
The security guard asked me to show him my receipt, which I did. I didn't know what the alarm went off about, so I asked the guard what it was about ? and he replied vaguely, like meat ?.
I thought, "What?
I was typing at the self-checkout counter at the time.
But I read all the barcodes correctly.
Of course I didn't steal anything.
I also thought of cosmetics ?. ?
I wonder if that's why she was acting suspicious ? and all I can do is wonder.
I'm like, if you want, let's spread them out one by one in front of the security people.
Then again the next month, when I went to the donkey.
That time I went to the cash register and paid my bill.
And again. When I left, the alarm went off.
Again ? I really don't know what's going on.
I didn't steal it. ?
I didn't steal it, but if you want, I can open it all up ? I'm like that.
I'm really angry.
I feel like I did something ?. It's traumatic. ?
All I have left is anger.
I think I'm going to start hating Donki.

Thanks for replying, min. I understand that there are products with barcode stickers that are responding to the barcode stickers.
I understand. Thank you very much. After listening to your opinions, I now think that it is normal for an alarm to go off. From now on, when the alarm goes off at the donkey shop on the way home, I will no longer think, "Why did it go off? On the contrary, I will be able to open the bag to make it easier to see and cope with the situation.

Donki has a lot of Japanese products, so I will continue to shop there.

I am glad I posted this !
Thank you so much to everyone who replied.

Whenever I go through security at the exit of Don Quijote, I always think that the alarm will ring. In the 10 years that I have lived in Hawaii, I think my mentality has improved a lot from when I first came to Hawaii. Of course, I have done nothing wrong, and I have come to accept the fact that this is what it is like to live together with other ethnic groups in a natural way.

Momo-san, thank you for your reply. Thanks for sharing your experience Momo-san. You were passing through thinking that the alarm would not ring.
I am new to Hawaii and was scared when the alarm went off at first. What ? I thought, "What the ?
When it rang continuously, I thought "Why? I thought, "Why?
When I was in Japan, I never heard alarms going off at the exits of stores, of course, and when they did, I thought it was a suspicious situation.

I am posting this to ask for your experiences, and
from your replies, I have learned that products with a separate barcode sticker, wagyu beef, cosmetics, clothing, masks, etc. will ring at the exit gate even if you have finished paying at both self-service and cashier's checkout.
And, the exit gate is always lit. I now understand that it is normal for the alarm to go off at the exit gate.

I am glad that I was able to solve the problem by listening to your opinions.
Thank you all very much.

When I buy an item with a barcode sticker, I will put the item in my bag or in an easily visible place, and I will prepare my receipt and bag before the security person tells me to do so.

It is important to accept that this is what it means to live together with other ethnic groups.

Momo-san, thank you so much for understanding my feelings and replying with kind words.

The alarms on Gate seem to be set to go off for meat products.

Also, Don ・ Quijote's Reusable Bag has another seal besides the tag.
You have to remove it, too.

I am not accusing you of anything.

I once entered Don ・ Quixote and the security
asked me to show my bag because the alarm went off, and I said, "You just entered the store, what are you talking about? I said, "You just entered the store, what are you talking about?

I said, "If you want to see it, I can show it to you. It's okay. But that security guy got fired, or he's not around these days.

Honolulu Waikiki, thank you very much for your reply.
And sorry for the late reply.
Honolulu Waikiki, that's what happened to you too.
If you are a resident and know the situation of Donki,
you may think you know it is normal to ring the bell, but
if you are a tourist from Japan and often go to Donki, you may not know this.
Now that I understand the situation at this Exchange Plaza Donki, I can think that it is normal for the alarm to go off at the exit, so I don't have to wonder ? if it will go off again in the future.
Thank you for sharing your experience.
