・ A vendor suddenly visits you and forcefully enters your room and asks you if you are interested in owning a house ？.
・ When I refused, he said, "All the time I spent explaining everything to you will be wasted. When I refused, he said, "I'm wasting my time explaining everything to you," and asked for a nuisance fee.
・ Once you sign a contract, they charge a penalty fee in the name of remuneration, etc. and refuse to refund your money even if you cancel the contract.
[Advice]
If you receive a visit, never let them in your room and answer over the intercom.
Do not flinch at high pressure, do not respond ambiguously, and if you have no intention of signing a contract, refuse the contract once and for all.
If you are asked to leave but do not, do not hesitate to call the police.


[Beware of side jobs that claim to be easy money, especially for those in their 20s ！ ]
"Easy money in a short time" or "You can earn money just by sending stamps" on SNS, video ads, ranking sites displayed in search engines, etc., are easy and casual, As a result, some have been charged exorbitant fees.
[Advice]
Don't just accept the explanation of the business, but investigate by yourself what kind of work is being done, what kind of profitable system is being used, etc., and if you don't understand it well, don't sign a contract.
