0Investment fraud using SNS ・ Beware of romance scams

Kamogawa Police Department informs you of the following.

Since last year, there has been an increase in investment and romance scams using SNS.
Using social networking services such as Facebook, Instagram, LINE, and matching apps, these scammers are trying to defraud people out of cash by saying things like "there is a highly probable asset management plan" or "let's accumulate assets for our future together".
By clicking on URLs or fake advertisements that lead to fake investment scam websites, the perpetrator, pretending to be a celebrity, invites you to a LINE group or starts communicating with you via direct messages on SNS, making you think he/she likes you by saying "I want to live with you" and so on. They will try to cheat you out of your money.
Men in their 50s and 60s and women in their 40s and 50s account for more than half of the victims.
Do not easily fall for sweet talk, and consult with people around you and the police to avoid becoming a victim.
