Beware of fraudulent phone calls pretending to be a police officer ！.

In Higashinosato, Urayasu City, there has been a fraudulent call from a person posing as a police officer.
There has been an increase in the number of calls from people pretending to be police officers, saying that "you are suspected of a crime" and trying to swindle you out of your money.
In this scheme, a person pretending to be a police officer leads you to a video call on a social networking service by saying, "You are under suspicion of money laundering and we are going to interview you.
In addition, the victims are also asked to send money from their own accounts to the criminals' accounts. Moreover, it is not only the elderly who are victimized, but also middle-aged and older people are becoming more and more common.
It is necessary to be aware that anyone can become a victim of crime prevention.

[Crime Prevention Measures]
For home landlines,
・ apply for international call blocking
・ use alert call recording
・ use number notification service
・ use answering machine settings
are very effective and should be taken into account before you become a victim.
