[Beware of suspicious calls ！ ！]

This is an announcement from Kimitsu Police Station.
Today, in the city, an automated voice will say
"Your phone will be out of service in two hours."
"Please press 1 to be connected to an operator."
and other such unsettling calls.
They then verbally ask for personal information, and finally,
"You can do this at an ATM."
"You can pay with electronic money."
and so on, trying to swindle you out of your money.

Others will also try to trick you into paying money by saying on your computer screen, "You are infected with a virus. Please call us immediately." When you contact them, they will claim to be a well-known company and tell you that you have
・ been infected with a virus.
・ I want you to buy e-money.
There have also been cases of fictitious billing fraud.

To prevent damage, set your home phone to voicemail even when you are home, do not call unknown numbers, and do not talk to anyone.
If you receive a suspicious phone call, please call 110 or the Kimitsu Police Station.
