Beware of solicitation of multi-transactions using close ties among friends

< Case >
I was called to a coffee shop to meet for the first time in a while by a couple who are acquaintances of a group of physically disabled people in which I am also a member. Another acquaintance of mine with disabilities, who did not know I was coming, solicited me for a health food multi-deal. He told me that if I introduced only two people to him, he would receive money immediately. I repeatedly refused, saying I had no money, but the acquaintance and his wife offered to cover the payment. I want to return and cancel the contract. ( 50s )

< A word of advice >
There have been cases of multi-dealers soliciting friends and acquaintances to increase the number of buyers, taking advantage of the connections between people with disabilities.
Don't just accept explanations such as "you will be paid if you introduce people" or "you can earn XX,000,000 yen per month", but carefully check the reality of the business, the scheme of the profit-making scheme, and the cancellation method, etc.
Even if it is an invitation from a close friend or colleague, if it is a contract that you do not need, refuse it unreservedly, saying "I will not sign up.
To detect damage at an early stage and prevent it from spreading, family members and others around you should always be on the lookout for any unusual behavior.
If you feel even a little uneasy, please contact your local government consumer affairs center, etc. together with your family and others around you ( Consumer Hotline 188 ).
