Dear Mint, 

Please understand, that these are recommendations based on research.
However, it is not Google Answers' job to be a "judge".

PT DUTA PRATAMA 
<http://www.dutapratama.com/> 
Negative signs: 
- Site registered only recently; expires in two years. 
- Claims to be an Indonesian firm, yet gives address in the United States. 
- Site written in bad English
- Verisign faked

Verdict: Stay away. 

**

MGIT JAPAN CO.,LTD 
<http://www.mgitjapan.com/> 
Negative signs: 
- Site registered recently (Sep. 2005), and will expire soon. 
- Server IP in the US, company claims to be in Japan (possible, my
site works like that, but dodgy).
- "For U.S. customers, we accept wire transfer, cashier's check, and
Escrow.com as forms of Payment. For non-U.S. customers, we accept wire
transfer only." - this method is also used by scammers. Why wouldn't a
large, established, wholesaler use some other methods?

Verdict: Fishy at best, but of all three, the least suspicous. 

**

Martole Electronics 
There is a company called Martole Digital, mentioned in most of the reports. 

This is a highly suspicious company. Their website
(http://www.martole-digital.com/, inactive) is registered in the US,
although they claim to be in Indonesia.

Because it is inactive, one can only trust the conflicting information
that appears on the different B2B sites - with different names and
different claims.

Verdict: 10 foot pole. 

I hope this answers your question. Please contact me if you need any
clarification on this answer before you rate it.
