Chat: Japanese man who didn’t know how banks work defrauded out of 21 million yen SoraNews

A: Hey there! Did you hear the funny story about that guy in Otsu, Shiga Prefecture?
B: Nah, what happened?

A: So, this dude got tricked by some scammers claiming to be from a telecom company and police. They said he had 40 million yen deposited and withdrawn in his account, and they needed him to transfer money so they could check the bills.

B: Woah! That's crazy! Did he really believe them?

A: Seems like it, because he made three transfers over two days! But it turned out he got scammed, of course. And now everyone's making jokes about him online. Some are saying he thought money was kept in stacks of cash or that banks use a teleporter to transfer cash!

B: Haha, poor guy. But at least he reported it to the police and they're investigating it as a special fraud case.

A: Yeah, I hope he learns something from this experience. By the way, do you understand how banks work or am I the only one around here who doesn't get it?

B: Oh, I think I have an idea! But let's not judge others, right? We all have our gaps in knowledge!
