Life Safety ・ Safety Information [Consumer Lifestyle Information] Beware of FX transactions solicited in investment groups on social networking services.

A person who applied to be my friend on LINE invited me to an investment group. He invited me to open an overseas FX account and transferred 500,000 yen to the designated account in his name. The money was deposited into my bank account. Thinking that he could trust him, he transferred a total of 7,000,000 yen to a different account in his personal name each time. However, when I offered to withdraw approximately 500,000 yen, I was told that I could not withdraw the money unless I transferred approximately 1,600,000 yen as overseas transaction tax. I want to recover the principal amount alone. （ 70s ）

＜ A word of advice ＞
SNS We have received advice about fraudulent forex trading solicited within the investment groups above. There is no guarantee that you will make money.
Be aware that even if it looks like a profit is being made on the trading screen, the screen itself may be fictitious and no actual transaction is taking place.
We do not have you deposit money using an account in your personal name for normal FX transactions. If an account in your personal name is specified as the payee, do not transfer funds to it, as it is highly likely to be a scam.
When conducting FX trading, be sure to check whether the firm is registered as a financial instruments firm or not on the "List of firms with license ・ permit ・ registration, etc." on the Financial Services Agency website. Do not enter into a contract with an unregistered firm that is not listed.
FX trading is a high-risk transaction. Do not sign a contract if you do not understand how it works.
If you are in trouble, please contact the Consumer Affairs Center of your local government, etc. （ Consumer Hotline 188).
