Warning about Refund Fraud

Today, in Asahi City, a person claiming to be a city hall employee called me on my landline and said, "I sent you the details of my medical expenses and the application form together. I will send you the documents again, so please give me your cell phone number. The caller stated, "I sent you the medical expense statement and the application form together.
This call is a refund fraud. The perpetrator then calls again, claiming to be a financial institution, and directs the caller to a bank, where they try to get the caller to operate an ATM machine to transfer money.
If money is mentioned on the phone, suspect a scam and contact your family or the Asahi Police Station instead of making a decision on your own.
