Trying to verify a company to see if it is real or a scam ring

I applied to a recruiter on LinkedIn, and they referred me to this company, which has another parent company in Cambodia that is considered a large conglomerate. PRINCE JAPAN株式会社｜プリンスジャパン is their company name, but I can't find too much about them at all. Please Help!

Well that's a red flag. A "large conglomerate" with no information about them. Not to mention a Japanese company with a parent company in Cambodia. Do they have a web page?

They do have a web page. 企業理念 | 新たな出会いと価値の創造

Oh ok. I don't know. It's hard to tell. It's a Japanese domain which is a good sign. I don't see any red flags in the DNS info.
The Japan address does lead to a small office space. Here's info on the building.

So I guess I don't see any major problems. I would proceed cautiously. Like if they offer you a job without properly interviewing you or with higher than average pay or without clarifying the role. And, of course, if they ask for money.
