In May, social media investment fraud caused losses of over 200 million yen in the prefecture.

According to the prefectural police, there were 12 cases of social media investment fraud from January to April, totaling 90.3 million yen.
In contrast, high-value losses have been discovered one after another this month, including 89 million yen in Ota City, 49 million yen in Takasaki City, 34.2 million yen in Ota Town, and 22.5 million yen in Shibukawa City.
The main methods are to post advertisements using celebrities' photos without permission on social media, invite victims to LINE groups such as investment study groups, and display fake price movements to make them think they have made a profit.
