Beware of scams related to the new banknotes.

This information is provided due to an e-mail sent out by the Chiba Prefectural Police Headquarters regarding a scam.

New banknotes will be issued from July 3, 2024.
Please be careful of the scam associated with it.

The other day, a person pretending to be an employee of a financial institution in the prefecture asked
"Do you have any cash at home?"
"Due to the changeover to the new paper currency, you will be taxed if you have cash in your home."
"Make a deposit."
There have been cases of people being defrauded of cash or cash cards by saying things like.

《Note》
〇 Current bills can continue to be used after new bills are issued.
Please be careful of scams such as "current banknotes will no longer be accepted".

If you receive a suspicious call, hang up and consult your family or the police.
