Chiba City ： Beware of Malicious Business Practices ！.

Malicious agents are preying on your property in a variety of ways.
They take advantage of people's anxiety and greed, targeting the elderly, young people with little social experience, and general consumers with limited knowledge of business transactions.
Here are some of the most troublesome malicious business practices, so be careful not to become a victim.

① Inspection business
A business practice whereby a contract is concluded for unnecessary work, product replacement, or extermination work by saying "we will inspect your house for free" or "your roof is broken".
② Interest and Interest-Bearing Commercial Transactions
A commercial method to defraud a customer of the purchase price or investment money by soliciting the customer under the guise of trading in private stocks, bonds, funds, foreign currencies, etc. by saying "you will never lose money" or "the principal is guaranteed", etc.
③ Sending and Receiving Business
A business practice of suddenly and unilaterally sending goods to a customer or sending goods to a customer despite the customer's refusal of a sales offer and demanding payment for the goods.
④ Multilevel marketing
A commercial method in which an acquaintance solicits an individual to become a sales representative of a product and expands the sales organization in a chain-like manner, by saying, "If you become a member and obtain new buyers, you will get a large bonus.

〇 Beware of such situations ！
・ "Hurry, it's free now," etc. to rush you into a contract
・ "You have to hurry and sign up," "Only you," etc. to emphasize that it is special
・ "
・ Solicited by someone you trust, such as a friend or acquaintance

Points to avoid becoming a victim
・ Make sure of the person's identity and requirements
< ・ Don't trust a good or lucrative offer
・ Don't give an ambiguous answer, but have courage and refuse clearly
