Today, in the Gyotoku Police Station area, a criminal claiming to be an employee of the Ichikawa City Office said
"This is the Ichikawa City Office. We have a refund."
A phone call has been received from a person claiming to be an employee of the Ichikawa City Office.
This kind of call is one of the phone de scams in which the caller pretends to be a city hall employee and leads the caller to an unmanned ATM to make the caller transfer the money.
"I suspect a scam first," and "I'll check with my family." and so on.

Banks ・ ATMs cannot process medical expense refunds ！

Any mention of "money" and "cards" over the phone is a scam ！

If you receive such a call, hang up the phone and be sure to consult the police or family.
Also, please be sure to consult with the police or a family member. Also, the best way to prevent damage is not to answer calls from criminals.
Use answering machine settings and call recording to prevent phone deception.
