■Beware of scams pretending to be police officers! At the outset, Support Officer Croquette mentioned that his own family members are also members of the Special Fraud Prevention Team, and said, “It’s best not to answer calls from suspicious numbers.” Pretending not to know can prevent damage. “Let’s make sure to pretend we don’t know the quiz,” he said. After that, we conducted a three-question True/False quiz about special fraud based on recent techniques. ・When you receive a call from someone claiming to be a police officer saying, “There is a warrant for your arrest,” or “We need to make a transfer to investigate your bank account.” ・When you receive a call from a phone number that ends in “110” like the police station ・When you are asked for unpaid fees by automated voice All of these could be scams, so I asked people not to rush into giving out personal information or transferring money, but to consult the police or someone close to them. ■“If you do not use international calls, please stop using them” After the event at the station square, croquette support officers distributed crime prevention goods to event participants and passersby. “Recently, it seems that fraudulent calls are sometimes received from international phone calls.If you do not use
international calls, please apply for suspension of use.” “Please tell your grandparents too,” he said, calling for the whole community to work together to prevent damage from special scams.
