About Phone Deception Appointment Calls

Today,
・ calls have been received in the Togane Police Station area, claiming to be from
・ financial or electric companies
with automatic voice guidance.
The caller states
・ there are unpaid bills
or
・ one person household, please press "1"
.

These are the appointment calls （ the precursor calls ） of the telephone deception, and if you follow the voice guidance and press the buttons, you will be talking directly to the scammer who claims to be from the same business.
To avoid talking to the perpetrator, if you answer even the slightest strange call, please hang up the phone immediately, consult your family or contact the police department.

★ The secret to avoid being scammed is to not talk to the perpetrator.
To do this, set your phone to an answering machine setting even when you are at home.
★ Recently, scam calls from international phone numbers starting with "＋ （ plus ）" are very common.
If you do not need to make or receive international calls, please make use of the "International Calls Non-Handling Reception Center （ 0120-210-364 ）
to suspend incoming and outgoing calls without charge.
