Dear Valued Customers & Members of the Public,
It has come to our attention that a number of unauthorized individuals and/or companies are misusing the name of “LARUS Limited” (“LARUS” or “our company”), or other names which closely resembles to LARUS’s name, in an attempt to cause existing/prospective customers of LARUS to transfer funds to at least 3 non-LARUS bank accounts, whilst purporting to carry out business on behalf of LARUS (“Unauthorized Acts”).Below are the names of the individuals and/or companies (“Unauthorised Parties”) carrying out the Unauthorized Acts:
1. Keith Kwan Tsz-hong (individual)
2. Lili Hu (individual)
3. IPv4 Superhub Limited (company in Hong Kong)
4. 369 IntoNet Limited (company in Hong Kong)
5. LARUS Limited (company in USA with the exact same name as our company, but still not our company)
Whereas, below are the 3 non-LARUS bank accounts used by the Unauthorised Parties for the purpose of their Unauthorized Acts:

We would like to strenuously clarify that the aforementioned Unauthorised Parties, the 3 non-LARUS bank accounts and/or any of the Unauthorised Parties’ related platforms (websites, social medias, emails, etc) are strictly not related/associated in any way to our company or any affiliates of our company.
Kindly be informed that one or more of the Unauthorised Parties have been discovered to have even liaised and/or made business dealings with a company from Iran, a sanctioned country by the USA, whilst purporting to carry out business on behalf of our company. We wish to reiterate that such acts carried out by the Unauthorised Parties are strictly not related/associated in any way to our company or any affiliates of our company.
As such, we would like to caution the public and our valued customers to remain vigilant and do not respond to any communications having any relation to and/or originating from the Unauthorised Parties (inclusive of the 3 non-LARUS bank accounts) purporting to be carrying out business on behalf of LARUS.
For the avoidance of doubt, we at LARUS only accept payments into the only following account:
