fraud is next to you

Well, is it the compensation for not snowing or accumulating? The discomfort in my body is terrible.

The moment I stood up from the bed, was the crying old man hugging me around my waist? Her lower back feels strangely heavy and she can't walk properly, so she's been in bed for the past few days. But when I woke up this morning, the heaviness in her lower back disappeared a little, and I wondered if she had calmed down. It's getting easier, so I'm working steadily.

Well, putting aside the condition of such an unhealthy old man, it's something that always bothers me when I read the local newspaper.
Even this morning, I feel like I read articles about people falling victim to special scams almost every day.
The ages range from 10s to 70s, and the amount ranges from a few thousand yen to several million yen, and in rare cases, tens of millions of yen.
The content of the damage appears to be a repetition of a classic method that has been around for a long time via the Internet.

When I look at these articles, I always think that "caution" announcements have little effect.
Abandon the idea of "I happened to be scammed" like it was a long time ago, and look beyond the random postcards, envelopes, and other methods of fraud via the Internet.' I think we should announce that it will be existed close to us.

It's not the deceive's fault, but the deceived's fault as well.
You may think that we have changed our values in an unpleasant time, but if we respond to these fraudulent acts using old common sense and ideas, we will be left behind.
This is what I think because I encounter or experience it every day, and after encountering it, I develop my immunity based on the premise of being "deceived" rather than "not being deceived." Isn't it important to be prepared and ready to show some negative reaction?

In fact, yesterday I suddenly received an email from Apple asking for a survey regarding iPhone usage.
Since it happened suddenly, I can't make an accurate judgment. However, from my experience, there are no surveys sent via email unless the user contacts Apple for some reason, so I immediately delete the email, thinking it might be a scam.

Also, since I have multiple website domains, I receive "domain renewal" notification emails almost every day. However, since I only use one domain registration agency, this type of email is nothing more than a scam, so it goes straight to my spam mailbox.

Also, when I bought my first computer, I became interested in erotic sites, and as a result of surfing the Internet, I ended up being forced to visit fraudulent sites and being infected with viruses (including the worst OS initialization) as a result of my curiosity. However, this is not a problem because it is a damage that has been done after taking precautionary measures and understanding (that you will fall for a virus or scam).

I thought about posting images of scams I've actually encountered, but I don't post images because people who commit scams are either proud of it, or they tend to take advantage of it.

Postcards and envelopes that are sent indiscriminately can be easily ignored or taken countermeasures if you don't get used to them.
But even if you don't know how to commit fraud over the internet, how about operating that app? Or that click? , I wonder if it was the website at that time, etc. It is easy to take advantage of ambiguous psychology.

In the end, it's your responsibility in the end.

However, we all find ourselves in situations where we just don't know how to solve the problem.
In that case, we recommend that you consult with someone you trust.

Is it a scam? If you don't understand or can't decide for yourself, don't worry or be embarrassed, it's important to talk to someone quickly! !

If there is no one you can trust, in the worst case scenario, consider public consultation services instead of private ones.

Even if you are embarrassed, let's lead to a bright future where you can say, "I'm glad I consulted you then!" and "It's just a funny story now!"...
