Registration of Indians at the Embassy of India,Tokyo

The Embassy of India in Japan would like to reach out to as many of our compatriots as possible, especially to share information about our activities, visits and events. Also, given the current situation, the Embassy also needs to be in a position to contact members of the diaspora in case of emergencies, whether natural or man-made.

Today, we are launching an effort to collect such basic data, with help from all members of the community. We would request you to please register yourself and all members of your family at the link https://www.indembassy-tokyo.gov.in/RegisterFormNri, and also encourage others in the community to do so.

NO other organisation or individual has been authorised to collect any personal data on behalf of the Embassy. Also, the data collected through the link below will be retained only with the Embassy.

Please provide as accurate information as possible, so that the Embassy is able to reach out to you in times of celebration and distress, alike.

Advisory to the Indian Community on Fraud Phone Calls

The Embassy of India, Tokyo would like to draw the attention of Indian Community in Japan about fraudulent calls being received by members of the community, especially Indian students and professionals, from unscrupulous elements using the name of the Indian Embassy and spoofed telephone numbers. The callers generally speak English or Hindi.

The method adopted by the criminals is often as follows:

Calls originate from many numbers, including 0332622391. While this is the registered Embassy number, these callers have been able to spoof this Sometime calls have no caller ID i.e. show no number.
Most often, the fraudsters claim that the call recipient has provided wrong or incomplete information to the Japanese authorities (or the Indian Embassy), and that if they do not transfer ‘penalty’ money immediately, they would either be sent back to India, or be sent to jail. They are in possession of personal details (usually through open sources like social media platforms), which lends authenticity to their claims.
In some cases, they have now begun to ask for money so that their names could be included for consideration in the Vande Bharat Mission flights being organised by the Government of India.

The perpetrators aim to – and are able to – cause panic and urgency, and demand that the fine or penalty needs to be paid through Western Union money transfer/purchase I-tune Gift Cards, through credit/debit cards immediately or else deportation proceedings would be initiated.

It is requested that in the event of receiving such calls, the number from which call has originated, date and time of call, contact number on which call was received and nature of demand or threat may be furnished to the local Police as well as Embassy of India, Tokyo at sscons.tokyo@mea.gov.in and mincons.tokyo@mea.gov.in (in prescribed format below).

2. All concerned are advised to be vigilant and be on guard against these Do not fall prey to this scam.

3. It is reiterated that the Embassy does not call up people to ask for money

注意喚起：　詐欺電話について

在日インド邦人を狙った詐欺電話が報告されています。在日インド職員になりすました人物が、インド人留学生や社会人を中心に電話をかけており、携帯電話に表示される発信元電話番号も在日インド大使館の代表番号が表示されるようです。

詐欺電話の手口：

在日インド邦人を狙う詐欺電話は、在日インド大使館の代表番号03-3262-2391を含む複数の電話番号から発信されています。大使館の代表番号は、公的に登録された電話番号ですが、犯人は発信元番号を大使館代表番号に変更して発信しているようです。中には発信元電話番号が表示されないというケースもあるようです。

応答すると、日本の当局(または在日インド大使館)に対し、虚偽の情報提供を行ったため、即時に「罰金」を送金する必要があり、もし送金しなければインドへ強制送還されるか、刑務所に収監される、と告げられます。多くの場合、大使館職員からの電話であると信じさせるため、詐欺師はSNSといったオープンソースを通じ、事前に個人情報を収集した上で電話をかけてきます。

中にはインド政府が行うVande Bharat Mission への選考対象になれると、金銭を要求する場合もあるようです。

詐欺師は、電話を受けた方をパニックに陥れようとし、多くの場合成功します。そして、違反金や罰金の支払いが停滞すると、強制送還手続きが始まってしまうので、ウェスタン・ユニオンからの送金や、I-Tuneギフトカードの購入、クレジットカードまたはデビットカード等で速やかに納入するよう求めてきます。

このような電話があった場合は、発信元の電話番号、着信日と時間、また連絡先として共有された電話番号、要求の内容、または脅迫内容等を最寄りの警察署に報告すると同時に、在日インド大使館の担当者宛にメールでお知らせください。報告書フォーマットは下記リンクから入手できます。メール送信先は、sscons.tokyo@mea.gov.in及びmincons.tokyo@mea.gov.inです。

在留邦人の皆様にはこのような詐欺電話に決して騙されることのないよう、十分にご注意いただきますよう、お願い申しあげます。
重ねてのご案内になりますが、在日インド大使館がお電話で金銭を要求する事は決してありません。
