Cancellation of Japan Post Bank "mijica" November 9, 11:41 due to illegal withdrawal of savings
It was found that Japan Post Bank has decided to cancel the debit card / prepaid card "mijica", which has been fraudulently withdrawn from savings and leaked personal information, after transferring its functions to other services.
Japan Post Bank has issued "mijica" for three years, and 54 cases have been confirmed by the end of September due to the illegal withdrawal of savings of people with accounts, and the damage amount has reached 3.32 million yen. ..
It has also been revealed that 1422 members may have been illegally logged in and their personal information stolen.
According to the people concerned, Japan Post Bank has decided to cancel mijica in response to this situation.
We are considering moving the functions of debit cards and prepaid cards to other services so that they can be used.
It seems that it is difficult to continue because it requires a large investment to drastically improve the security deficiencies that have been revealed so far.
The number of mijica members is about 200,000, and Japan Post Bank has decided to enhance the consultation desk for a series of damages, and President Norito Ikeda is expected to explain this policy at a press conference on the 9th.
