Chiba City ： Beware of Scam Callers Claiming to be City Hall Employees

Today, a phone call is being reported in the vicinity of Miyazaki-cho, Chuo-ku, Chiba City, Japan, as a premonitory sign of a benefit scam.
The scam is that a person claiming to be a city hall employee says, "I have a benefit payment. Have you received the documents? The caller will then come to your home to pick up your cash card, or use sophisticated tactics to lure you to an ATM where they will try to get you to operate the ATM and transfer the money.
If you receive any of these suspicious calls, do not panic and make a decision on your own, but consult your family and call the police.
Also,
If a "ko" elderly person uses a
"ke" cell phone while operating an
"e" ATM's
"ka" screen,
this is a case of fraud, so please call the police as well as "Koekake".

The Chiba Chuo Police Station has created an audio file of a similar scam, which can be accessed at the following URL.
