Chiba Prefecture, damaged by typhoon damage Suspicious telephones for repairing roofs one after another, September 13, 11:38
In Chiba Prefecture, where many houses were damaged by Typhoon No. 15, local governments are calling for attention because there are a lot of suspicious telephone calls for free roof inspection and repair, which may lead to fraud.
Among them, in Sodegaura City, a person who named himself a repairer came to a damaged house, and there was an example of trying to repair by telling a lie that `` I am repairing the roof for free at the request of the city '' It means that one after another.
In Sodegaura City, the city does not request a specific company to repair a private house, but calls for attention because it may be a malicious company that charges a large repair fee later.
In Ichihara City, there are a number of suspicious telephones saying “going to check the roof” with the staff of the city.
In Ichihara-shi, we do not make such telephone contact and call for attention as there is fear of fraud.
