Investment fraud using SNS ・ Beware of romance scams

We are providing this information due to an e-mail sent out by the Chiba Prefectural Police Headquarters concerning a scam.

Investment and romance scams using SNS are increasing ！
Using SNS such as Facebook, Instagram, and LINE, people cheat you out of cash by saying "there is a highly probable asset management" or "let's accumulate assets for our future together", etc. This is their modus operandi.
After clicking on a URL or fake advertisement that leads to a fake investment scam website, the perpetrator, pretending to be a celebrity, invites you to a LINE group or starts communicating with you via direct messages on a social networking service, and then tries to cheat you out of your money by using various methods, such as saying that he/she wants to live with you. They will try to cheat you out of your money.
Don't easily fall for such a clever scheme, and consult and confirm with others around you to avoid becoming a victim.
