A recent trend is the concerning rise in the number of young boys and girls, lacking a mature sense of right and wrong, getting lured into fraudulent schemes for quick pocket money.
Tragically, many are placed in high-risk roles that target the elderly, leading not only to their participation in special frauds but also to their eventual arrest. It is important for adults to watch over children to prevent them from being involved in such crimes.
A multilingual leaflet on how to protect children from being involved in special fraud can be downloaded from the Kanagawa Prefectural Police Website.
Please use it as a reference to safeguard your children.
