Phone De Fraud] Information from the Mobara Police Department.

Mobara Police Station announces.
Today is Pension Payment Day.
It is expected that scammers who cheat your relatives, city hall, financial institutions, etc., will call you on the pension payment day, trying to cheat you out of your money.
If money is mentioned on the phone, it is a scam ！ Hang up the phone immediately.

Recently, we have received an increasing number of calls regarding international calls beginning with ＋ （ plus ） and scams involving power companies.
There have also been a number of fictitious billing scams in which a warning screen appears on a computer or smartphone saying that the phone is infected with a virus, or when contacting a phone number displayed in a short message received, the user is asked to buy electronic money at a convenience store and give the number in order to cancel the service.

The best way to avoid being tricked by scammers is to not talk directly to them.
Always set your home landline to voicemail ・ Set your home phone to block blocked calls to avoid answering unnecessary calls. Utilize the number display to check the other party's phone number. Do not call back to unknown numbers or contact phone numbers that appear on your e-mail or alert screen.
If you hear about money over the phone, do not make a decision alone, consult a family member or contact the Mobara Police Department.
Let's eliminate the damage caused by scams under the slogan, "If someone talks about money on the phone, it's a scam - even if it's a family member ！".
