Last updated: July 15, 2026

【Important】Beware of fake online stores and impersonation accounts on social media.

We have identified fraudulent online stores that are using the HIDEO WAKAMATSU company name and the name of our representative without authorization. We have also identified impersonation accounts on social media platforms such as Instagram that falsely offer PR collaborations and brand ambassador opportunities, directing users to external websites.

■ Our official social media accounts

The following are the only official social media accounts operated by our company.

When using social media, please make sure that the account name and ID match the official accounts listed below before following, contacting, or interacting with any account.

If you receive any campaign, collaboration, or other request from our company, it will only be sent via direct message (DM) from one of the official accounts listed above.
Please be sure to verify that the account that contacted you is one of the official accounts listed above and is not an impersonation account pretending to be our company.

■ Please Be Aware

If you receive a suspicious direct message (DM) or encounter a suspicious website, please do not click any links, provide any personal information, or make any payments. Please also delete the message and block the account.

If you use a fraudulent online store or interact with a suspicious social media account, your user ID and password, as well as your personal information, may be stolen. You may also become a victim of fraud, such as paying for products that are never delivered, receiving counterfeit items, or having your credit card used without authorization.

■ What to do if you have been affected

Please save any relevant evidence, such as your message history, direct messages (DMs), and payment records, and contact your local police station for assistance.
