2023年1月14日 土曜日の朝は曇りで午後から雨の気配。9度も気温があり予想最高気温は15度と冬も一休みといった気配。
今週は非常にショッキングな事件がありました。親族の歴史の中でも指折りの悲しい出来事でした。
オレオレ詐欺の被害者に母親がなってしまったのです。
1月10日に100万円、11日に200万円 合わせて300万円受け子?に渡してしまったのです。
事件の経緯を聞いてみると、自宅の固定電話にわたくしを名乗る男から電話があり、「会社の社長の娘を妊娠させてしまったので和解金としてお金が必要になった。」といった趣旨の依頼をしてきたそうです。
母親が声が違うというと「風邪をひいている、そんなことより。。」的な切り替えし。
わたしの妻の名前、子供の名前を言ってくれと「今人ごみであんまりしゃべれない、そんなことより。。」
的な交わしで矢継ぎ早に急いでお金を用意しないと大変なことになるとまくしあげられ、気が動転してしまったそうです。
肝心のわたくしは日中仕事の都合、携帯の電源は切っており連絡がつかない状態。わたくしの妻に連絡しようか迷ったがことがこと(人様の娘を妊娠させてしまったという)だけに躊躇され結局連絡できず。
詐欺の犯人と連絡を重ねる中で自宅の住所も知っているとのことでよけに母親はびっくりし、信じ込んでしまった模様。
11日にはついにお金の受け渡しで犯人の指定してきたある駅の側のコインパーキングに赴いたところ、「一方通行でいけないので別の場所に来てくれ。」と別の場所に移動。
おそらく警察などはいなく一人で来ていることを犯人が遠くから確認し、別の場所へ誘導したと考えられます。
その別の場所で受け子とみられる30代くらいの男にお金を渡したとのこと。
12日も追加でお金を渡して、12日わたくしの着信履歴が13時と、17時頃にあったのですが誰からかかってきているのかよく確認しないでいたところ、19時くらいに母親から電話がありようやくオレオレ詐欺であることに気づいたという顛末。
時遅し、既に2日間で合計300万円渡してしまった後のこと。。母親には今回のことで覚えていることを今晩中に紙に書いて翌日警察に届け出るよう指示。
翌朝、母親は9時から18時40分まで現場検証と取り調べに協力し詐欺専門刑事に2時間自宅待機してもらい電話待ちの応対の仕方を教えてもらったそうです。刑事から長男にも電話してもらいいろいろ教示いただけたそう。おとり作戦もこれから頑張っていただくそうです。
後の祭りですが、母親は普段は固定電話は留守電になってから受話器を取るようにしていたとのことですが、10日に限って魔が差してしまったとのこと。
刑事によれば住所など個人情報を細かく知っている詐欺はおおかた❝ 卒業名簿 ❞でやっているとのこと。固定電話の番号を変えることを刑事から勧められたそうです。
最後に恥ずかしながら自分の母親の性格を簡単にご紹介します。(詐欺被害にあいやすいかもしれない人の特徴として共有させてください。)
戦前生まれの80代。5人兄弟の長女で中卒。わたくしが3歳までは大船の官舎に住んでいたがその後は実家の隣に家を建て、以来そこに定住。結婚後 専業主婦として家庭に従事し、内職の洋裁などを我々子供が中学ぐらいまで続け、その後はパートなどに時折出て社会経験を重ねる。ネットもない時代の為、自分の住んでいる地域以外の情報は異次元。
性格は明るくおしゃべり。今でも心はある意味子供のようで、ちょっとしたことで気が動転してしまう。健康なのが長所(骨密度はかなり若い)。学識は高くなくラジオ、テレビや知り合いとのおしゃべりが唯一の情報源で自分から向学心をもって研究し取り組むタイプでない。携帯は何とか子供夫婦などのサポートでショートメールの使い方をある程度習得するも、LINEなどは無理とあきらめ状態。感情優位で情に流されやすい。2018年に夫を亡くして以来一人暮らし。
口癖は「 女の子は大学なんていかなくていいのよ。」~戦後間もないころの状況を今でも語る希少な存在か。ネットの情報収集は異次元の世界の世代です。
母親は大きなお金を運用したり売り買いしたりといったマネージメント経験はなしで、夫の退職金が人生最大の大金管理かもしれません(想像ですが)。以前実家で会った時に郵貯の窓口でリスク商品を勧められ購入して結局数十万円だか数百万だか定かではありませんが損をしたと話しておりました。そういうリテラシーの属性です。
今後の対策については次回の記事にいたします。
どうかどうか、この犯人による被害者がこれ以上でないことを祈ります。
悪銭身に付かず。
To victims of fraud.
January 14, 2023 Saturday morning was cloudy with a hint of rain in the afternoon, with a temperature of 9 degrees and an expected high of 15 degrees, a sign that winter is taking a break.
This week we had a very shocking incident. It was one of the saddest events in the history of my family.
A mother became a victim of the Oleore scam.
She received 1 million yen on January 10 and 2 million yen on January 11, totaling 3 million yen. When we asked her about the circumstances of the incident, she told us that her house had been fixed.
When we asked her about the circumstances of the incident, we learned that a man claiming to be me called her on her home landline and asked her for money as a settlement because he had gotten the daughter of the company president pregnant. The mother said her voice sounded different.
When the mother told him that her voice sounded different, he replied, “I have a cold, that’s not important.” She switched to a “I have a cold, that’s not important.
When I asked him to tell me my wife’s name and my children’s names, he replied, “I can’t talk much in a crowd right now, that’s not important.
He was so upset that he was told that he would be in trouble if he did not get the money in a hurry.
The important thing was that I was working during the day and had my cell phone turned off and could not be reached. I wondered whether I should contact my wife, but she was hesitant because of the circumstances (she had gotten someone’s daughter pregnant), and in the end I could not contact her.
After repeated contacts with the scammer, he told her that he knew her home address, which startled her and made her believe him.
On the 11th, she finally went to a coin-operated parking lot by a certain train station, which was designated by the perpetrator, to receive the money, but he told her to come to a different location because it was a one-way street. I was told to come to a different place.
The perpetrator probably confirmed from a distance that there were no police and that he was alone, and led the victim to another location.
At the other place, he gave money to a man in his 30s, who was believed to be the receiver.
On the 12th, I gave him more money, and on the 12th, I received a call at 13:00 and 17:00, but I did not check who was calling me, and at 19:00, my mother called me and I finally realized it was an Oreore scam.
It was too late, I had already handed over a total of 3 million yen in two days. He instructed his mother to write down everything she could remember about the incident on a piece of paper tonight and report it to the police the next day.
The next morning, the mother cooperated with the crime scene investigation and interrogation from 9:00 to 18:40, and had a detective specializing in fraud stand by at her house for two hours to teach her how to answer the phone waiting for the call. The detective also called her eldest son, who was able to learn various things from her. They are also going to work hard on the decoy operation.
The mother said that she usually picked up the landline phone after it went to voicemail, but only on the 10th did the devil get in the way.
According to the detective, most scams with detailed personal information, such as addresses, are done with a “graduation list.” The detective recommended that he change his landline number.
Finally, I am ashamed to say that I would like to briefly introduce my own mother’s character. (Let me share it with you as a trait of someone who might be vulnerable to scamming.)
Born before the war, in her 80s, the eldest of five siblings, and a middle school graduate. She lived in a government housing in Ofuna until I was 3 years old, then she built a house next to her parents’ house and settled there since then. After marriage, she worked as a full-time housewife and did dressmaking and other domestic work until her children were in junior high school, after which she occasionally worked part-time to gain social experience. Since there was no internet in those days, information outside of her own area is of a different dimension.
She is cheerful and talkative. Even now, she still feels like a child at heart and gets upset over the slightest thing. His strength is that he is healthy (his bone density is quite young). He is not an academic person, and his only sources of information are the radio, TV, and chatting with acquaintances, and he is not the type to do research on his own initiative. He has managed to learn how to use a cell phone to some extent with the support of his children, but he has given up on using LINE. She is emotionally dominant and easily influenced, and has lived alone since the death of her husband in 2018.
She is fond of saying, “Girls don’t need to go to college.” ~She is one of those rare people who still talks about the situation in the early postwar period. This is a generation that is in a different dimension of information gathering on the internet.
Her mother has no management experience such as investing, selling or buying big money, and her husband’s retirement fund may be the biggest money management in her life (I imagine). When I met her at her parents’ house, she told me that she had lost several hundred thousand yen, I am not sure how much, after purchasing a risky product recommended by the postal savings office. Such is the attribute of literacy.
I will write about future countermeasures in my next article.
Please, please, please, please pray that there will be no more victims by this criminal.
No bad money will be wasted.
