🚨 Another fake expert exposed.
Akiyoshi IMAIZUMI (今泉 晶吉) falsely claims to be a former U.S. Air Force officer, a cybersecurity PhD, and fluent in 5+ languages. He appears in Japanese media as a “national security expert.” It's all a lie. @yamadajour

He claims:
– USAF Academy graduate
– Spy for U.S. intel
– PhD with a 4.0 GPA
But:
– His schools don’t check out
– GPA scores don’t exist for PhDs
– Entry to the USAF Academy requires U.S. citizenship, which he didn’t have

Despite this, Imaizumi appears in cybersecurity panels, media interviews, and defense-adjacent research events in Japan.
If he’s connected to China, this isn’t just fraud—it’s national security risk.
