Beware of fraudulent premonitory callers trying to trick the IRS !.

In Midori-ku, a caller has been receiving calls to his/her landline phone in the city of Midori-ku, Japan. The caller claims to be from the IRS and says
"You have unpaid taxes,"
leading the caller to a bill.
If you press the number indicated after the guidance
you may be told that "there is a shopping history and your personal information is flowing"
and you may become a victim of fraud such as being asked for personal information or money.

Do not immediately trust the caller about a call you do not remember, and consult your family or the police.

To avoid becoming a victim of fraud,
・ set your home landline phone to go to voicemail
・ set your cell phone to block calls to numbers other than the registered number or blocked calls
and take other measures to avoid talking to the perpetrator. !
