Chiba City : Beware of "Automated Voice Calls" Deceiving Phone Companies !.

We are currently receiving calls in Wakaba-ku from an automated voice caller who is pretending to be from a telephone company.
When you pick up the phone, you will hear
"This is ●● ( Telephone company ), your phone will be disconnected in 2 hours. Please press #1 for more information."
and so on.
If you press 1 as instructed by the automated voice, you will be connected to a criminal pretending to be an operator, who will ask you for personal information such as
name, address, date of birth, cell phone number, account number
etc.
You can then expect to be defrauded in various ways, such as having money transferred from an ATM or purchasing an e-money card.
Try to ignore any billing that you do not remember.
To protect your valuable money and personal information, please implement phone measures such as answering machine settings and do not answer suspicious calls.
