Vivinavi : Matsudo : (Japan) Matsudo

We provide this information due to an e-mail sent out by the Matsudo Police Department concerning a telephone deception.

Since yesterday, in the Nogikuno and Matsutobidai areas of the city, people have been receiving calls from the city office
saying, "Your insurance premiums are back. I will send you the documents."
Calls from his son
"I got some pears, I'll bring them to you."
etc. Calls are coming in that are signs of a phone de scam.

The perpetrator will try to deceive you by pretending to be any kind of person.
If you receive a suspicious call, please consult a relative or call 110 immediately.

Most victims of phone deception originate from calls to landlines installed in your home.
Setting your landline phone to an answering machine or a phone with a call recording function will prevent damage because the scammer will not like the recording and will hang up the phone.
Matsudo City is promoting a popular project to install countermeasure devices for 2 ， 000 yen, so please inquire.

In addition, Chiba Prefectural Police publish the voice of an actual "phone de fraud" call on their website. Please be aware of the methods used by the criminals and take measures to avoid becoming a victim.
