Chiba City : Please beware of fraud !.

In Minami-Seizane-cho, Chuo-ku, Chiba-shi, Chiba, a call was made to a fraudster who pretended to be his son, leading to fraudulent damage.
The caller said, "I lost a money transfer form that I need for work. I need one million yen as soon as possible.
These tactics were not the only ones used by the scammers. These tactics were followed by further phone calls demanding money, and then someone claiming to be the company's boss or the like would visit the victim's home to collect the money.
In Nitona, we have also received a similar phone call from someone claiming to be our son.
If you receive a suspicious call, do not make a rash decision alone, but consult with your family and call the police.
〇 To prevent damage from fraud, it is important not to "talk directly to the criminal.
〇 Set your home phone to "always" go to voicemail even if you are at home.
The words "I lost my cell phone"
"I can get a refund at an ATM"
"I have a cold and my voice sounds funny"
"I need money for work"
"Your card is being used illegally"
are fraudulent.
Family ties, stop phone de fraud ! !
