◎[Surge in resale ticket troubles] There has been a surge in the number of resale ticket troubles such as: people who purchased expensive live tickets without realizing that they were on a resale brokerage site and are not sure if they can use them; people who sent money using a code payment service to receive tickets from individuals but immediately afterward could not contact the other party; and so on.

[Advice]
Purchase tickets through authorized sales channels. Also, when searching the Web, make sure that the site is not a resale brokerage site and that the terms of use and contact information are clearly indicated.
Unauthorized resale may result in imprisonment of up to one year or a fine of up to one million yen, so do not do it.

◎[Beware of telemarketing problems with seafood products]
Consultations regarding telemarketing problems with seafood products continue to be received at consumer affairs centers nationwide. Recently, some of the solicitation are related to the tightening of import restrictions on Japanese products, such as "We are in trouble, so please help us".
Please be especially careful toward the end of the year, when there are more opportunities to make purchases, as this may lead to an increase in problems.

[Advice]
If you receive a solicitation for marine products over the phone, if you find anything even slightly strange, refuse it once and for all.
If you have signed a contract with a telemarketer, you can take a cooling ・ off period. Also, even if you receive a product unilaterally after having refused, refuse to accept it and do not pay for it.
