Damage to "docomo account" A total of 1990 million yen at 12 banks nationwide September 11, 15:34
Due to the problem of illegal withdrawal of bank deposits through a "docomo account," the damage confirmed so far has reached 1990 million yen at 12 banks nationwide, and the damage continues to grow.
NTT DoCoMo's "docomo account" is a service that allows you to shop and remit with "d payment" if you register a bank account and make a deposit. Through this account, illegal withdrawals of bank deposits occurred one after another.
According to NTT DoCoMo, as of midnight on the 11th, 73 cases were confirmed at 12 banks nationwide, totaling about 1990 million yen, and the damage continues to spread.
In addition, 18 of the 35 banks linked to doCoMo accounts have stopped remittances between accounts, such as withdrawing deposits from bank accounts and charging them to doCoMo accounts.
At a press conference on the 10th, NTT DoCoMo simplified the procedure for opening an account to increase the number of customers amid fierce competition with each company, resulting in insufficient identity verification and preventing spoofing by malicious users. I admitted that.
The company says it will fully compensate the victims and prevent recurrence, but the rush to expand the business backfires and the security deficiencies that protect the customer's funds are overlooked. In the form that was used, it will be asked whether the trust can be restored in the future.
