`Phishing scams in Japan & we were targeted




Phishing scams in Japan `Phishing scams in Japan & we were targeted Hello and welcome! We were victim of a phishing scam in Japan and we could catch the thief. My husband checks every morning our accounts and credit cards. About half an hour after his initial question he could see one more payment of about 100,000 ¥. He called the Credit Card Company and told them that there are payments which are not ours. On the phone the person in charge found one more payment of 100,000 ¥. What we could see is that all were spent at Yodobashi Camera in Shinjuku. We canceled our card on that day. But how it happened? A week earlier my husband received an email from American Express or what appears to be American Express where he was ask to log into his account and confirm his credit card number and details. This happen during lunch break and he usually answers private emails during this time. He was in a rush, having lunch and running errants. Immediately after he answered that email he thought it is strange, so we assume that the thief used this phishing scams email to get our Credit Card details. About a month later we got the information that they found the thief. The thief lived in Saitama, bought two iPhones and an iPad. The police gave as also his name, which I will not disclose here. 0:00 Beginning 0:25 Story 3:35 Ending 😁Don't be a stranger 🎠Subscribe to my channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/MartinaTakano 🎠Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/martinatakano/ 🎠Email: martinemler@gmail.com 🎠Twitter: https://twitter.com/martinatakano Music Song: Artlist Editing Software: imovie Camera: Sony alpha 7C & iPhone 12Pro Map: Google Maps | Map Data ©2021 ZENRIN Japan Drone: DJI Mavic 2 Pro XOX Martina Takano German living in Japan vlog / blogger
