Beware of Calls Predicting Refund Scams!

This is an announcement from Chiba Chuo Police Station.

A phone call has been received today in Honmachi 2-chome, Chuo-ku, Chiba, Japan, as a warning sign of a refund scam.
The caller, who pretends to be a city hall employee, said, "You will receive a refund of your insurance money. Please tell us your account and PIN number for the procedure.
The criminals then try to direct you to a convenience store or unmanned ATM to transfer the money.
If you receive such a suspicious call, do not make a decision alone, but consult your family and call 110 or the nearest police station.

Also,
if a "ko" elderly person uses a
"e" ATM
"ka" screen while using a
"ke" cell phone,
he/she is a victim of fraud and should "koekake" and call the police.
