！ ！ ] There has been an increase in the number of scams involving deceptions by police officers and city hall.

Currently, there has been a sharp increase in the number of telephone deception scams in Abiko City,
deceptively claiming to be a police officer, city hall, hospital, etc.

Police officer: "We have a warrant for your arrest, you need bail money"
City hall: "We have a tax or pension refund for you"
Hospital: "We have a refund for your medical expenses"
↑ All such calls are fraud ！
No police officer, city hall, hospital, etc. will ever talk about "money" over the phone.

If "money" is discussed over the phone,
・ check with or talk to a family member.
・ Talk to the police.
etc. to avoid becoming a victim of fraud.
Also, try to avoid answering scam calls by setting your landline phone to voicemail.

[Countermeasures against phone deception]
●Warning ・ Use the call recording function
●Use the unwanted call prevention function service
●Use the answering machine setting to avoid answering immediately even when home.
