Robberies by "black market" workers are on the rise.

Since August 2024, there have been a series of burglaries committed by "black market jobbers" in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and the victims have now been confirmed in Chiba Prefecture as well. The reported methods of the crimes include breaking and entering by breaking doors and windows, or by posing as delivery persons or door-to-door salesmen. In addition, "living in a house" and "elderly people" tend to be targeted more often.
In addition to physical measures such as installing security cameras ・ sensor lights and reinforcing door ・ and window locks, we should strive to improve security by actively communicating with our neighbors.

○ If you apply for a "dark job," .......
"Yakibyte" is a recruitment for crime executors. Once you get involved, they will threaten you with personal information about you and your family and you will not be able to get out until you are arrested. The criminal group conveniently uses the person they hire and then cuts him or her off as a "discarded piece".
If you have applied for a "black market job," do not hesitate to call the police consultation dial （ ＃ 9110 ） or the nearest police station. Even if you have actually committed a criminal act, do not hesitate to consult with the police.

○ In order not to get involved in a "black market job"
Be very careful about jobs with catchphrases such as "high-priced job", "instant payment", "just pick up the documents", or words like "receiver", "dispenser", or "black market job". If you suspect anything suspicious, consult your family or the police.
