Recently, information on fraudulent phone calls using phone numbers ending in "0110" has been confirmed in the Yamatake Police Station area.
This technique involves calling from a number ending in "0110," which is the same as the police headquarters or police station, and pretending to be a police officer in order to swindle the caller out of money.
In many cases, international calls are made and the first part of the phone number appears as "+", so please do not answer calls from numbers with "+" at the beginning or from unknown numbers.
Even if the number does not have a "+" prefix, there have been cases where the phone number of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department or a police station in Tokyo is displayed as a false number.
For more information on scams that impersonate police officers and countermeasures, please visit the website of the National Police Agency.
