The management at Tokyo’s Nishi Shinjuku-Takagi Building, where Lambert also claimed to have an office, said they found no trace of the firm.

Meanwhile, the U.S. cybersecurity expert that Giles recommended had also met Lambert, sitting down at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in New York on May 31. There, and at a second meeting with the expert on July 10, Lambert also touched on criticisms of Kaspersky.
