Beware of "Katori Surveys"

Please be cautious of the "Story Survey" regarding earthquake resistance measures for housing

There have been nationwide occurrences of "impersonation surveys," where misleading displays or explanations are used to make it seem like the survey is conducted by administrative agencies, such as questionnaires or statistical surveys related to housing seismic measures, in order to fraudulently obtain personal information.

In Inagi City, no individual survey questionnaires targeting general households regarding seismic retrofitting of residences are conducted.

The "Katarichosa" may lead to fraud or other crimes, so please be very careful when dealing with it, such as by checking the investigator's identification card.
