Special fraud group's base busted: Two people arrested, possibly in charge of money management. Last October, the base of a special fraud group in Shinjuku, Tokyo was busted.

Two people were arrested, including Hitomi Mochizuki (33), an unemployed resident of Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo. Three people, including Tadayuki Endo (41), a company executive whose residence is unknown, were re-arrested. This group is believed to have defrauded more than 3,000 people across the country of at least 120 million yen.
