The Aichi Prefectural Police arrested numerous individuals for suspected fraud and violation of the Specificed Commercial Transactions Law, deceiving those by taking their money by promising financial products “Binary Options” and invest in anticipation of exchange rate fluctuations.
Four men and women were arrested, which included unemployed former SKE48 member Yamada Juna (22). Yamada and the others have denied the charges and allegations of fraud.
On January 31, 2020, the four allegedly have pretended to have a way to make a large profit to a male office worker (23) at the time, saying that they would need a 500,000 yen which would be an “investment guidance fee”. The four ran a binary company “THE” and would act as if they were giving out facts and methods on how to make a lot of money.
From August 19th to March 20th, the prefectural police suspect that the group have taken 58 million yen from more than 100 people.
