Chiba Chuo Police Station informs.

Currently, not only phone de scams such as oleore scams and refund scams, but also "support scams" are increasing.
"Support scam" is a scam in which a warning screen or a warning sound such as "infected with a virus" appears while using the Internet on a computer, making the user impatient.
The scammer then calls the contact number listed on the warning screen under the guise of "removing the virus," etc., and leads the user to a fake support service, where the user is asked to pay a large fee for the removal of the virus.

If you are using the Internet and a warning screen appears, do not panic and never call the contact listed on the screen.

The National Consumer Affairs Center (NCC) has published information on the same technique.
