About the phone call de scam pretending to be a relative or a bank.

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

Today, in the Sakae-machi district ・ and Toshidai district
of the city, a person pretending to be a relative or a bank said "I got a lot of grapes. I'll go there when I have time."
"I have a refund."
Suspicious phone calls have been received.
Any offer of money, cash cards, etc. from someone claiming to be a relative, police officer, city hall, financial institution, etc. is a scam.
Hang up the phone immediately and call 110.

[To prevent fraudulent calls]
If you set your landline phone to an answering machine or use a phone with a call recording function, you can prevent fraud because fraudsters do not like to be recorded and will hang up on you.
Matsudo City is promoting a popular project to install countermeasure devices for 2 ， 000 yen, so please contact us.
For inquiries, please contact Cat Support 0120-5454-25

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