Unauthorized withdrawal through “docomo account” 14 bank account suspension due to damage expansion September 9 4:41

NTT Docomo said that the damage was spreading due to the problem that bank deposits were withdrawn illegally through NTT Docomo's electronic payment service "Docomo Account" Registration has stopped.

Docomo account is an NTT Docomo electronic payment service that allows you to purchase and send money with a smartphone by registering a bank account and depositing money, and the damage caused by illegally withdrawing bank deposits through this account has been revealed in various places since last week.



Until now, NTT Docomo

had suspended the registration of


the 77 Bank of Sendai City, the Bank


of China of Okayama City, and


the Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank account of Gifu Prefecture.


Since then, we have stopped registering 14 more accounts.



Specifically,


▽ AEON Bank


▽ Osaka Ikeda Senshu Bank


▽ Oita City Oita Bank


▽ Wakayama City Kiyo Bank


▽ Otsu City Shiga Bank


▽ Sendai City Sendai Bank


▽ Mie Prefecture Third Bank


▽ Hyogo Prefecture Tajima Bank


▽ Tottori City Tottori Bank


▽ Sapporo City Hokuyo Bank


▽ Aomori City Michinoku Bank


▽ Matsuyama City Iyo Bank


▽ Fukushima City Toho Bank


▽ Naha City Ryukyu Bank.



Due to this, the number of banks whose account registration was suspended became 17 banks.



Of these, 77 Bank, Chugoku Bank, Toho Bank, and Tottori Bank allegedly confirmed that their deposits were illegally withdrawn to a third party through a docomo account.



Other banks are suspected of being illegally used, and NTT Docomo and the banks are investigating the number and amount of damages as well as the recurrence prevention measures.



In addition, the FSA will receive reports from each bank on the facts and will check for other unauthorized withdrawals.
