Beware of Scams Related to New Paper Money !.

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

Finally, new banknotes will be issued from today.
Please be careful of the scam associated with it.

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

《Note》
〇 Old banknotes can continue to be used after new ones are issued.
〇 Please be careful of scams such as "the old banknotes will no longer be usable".

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