Beware of telephone deception claiming to be a police officer.

We are providing this information because the Matsudo Police Station distributed an e-mail concerning a telephone deception.

Yesterday, a person claiming to be from the Life Safety Division of the Matsudo Police Station made a suspicious phone call in Matsudo City, saying
"We have arrested a criminal in a fraud case, and the criminal gave us your name."
The Matsudo Police Station is stepping up its vigilance in response to such suspicious calls.

If money or cash cards are mentioned over the phone, it is a scam.
If you receive such a call, hang up the phone immediately and call the police.
Also, if a suspicious person comes to your home, do not let them in easily and respond over the intercom.

[To prevent damage]
To stop suspicious or unwanted calls, it is very effective to use the unwanted call prevention function.
Matsudo City introduces the installation of repelling devices, so please contact us.

In addition, the Chiba Prefectural Police Department has published the voice of an actual "phone de scam" call on their website. Please be aware of the methods used by the criminals and take measures to avoid becoming a victim.
