A simple part-time job at home?

A part-time job of "receipt agency" and "luggage transfer" that you can easily earn while you are at home. It looks like you just receive it and forward it, but in a normal online shop, you can specify a destination other than your home for gifts, so why do you have this part-time job? Here are some examples. When you are introduced to a part-time job at home by SNS or an acquaintance and contact the other party, you will be told that "just send the electrical appliances and electronic devices to the designated place" and "you will be paid thousands of yen for each case". Then, it is said that "an ID card is required to do this part-time job", and tell the other party the image data of the ID card, the address, name, date of birth, telephone number, and the bank account to receive the reward. .. When the package arrives, we will transfer it as it is without opening it as instructed. Therefore, I do not know the contents. However, the contents of this "receipt agency" and "baggage transfer" may actually be mobile phones, SIM cards, etc. Mobile phones and SIM cards require identity verification, but the personal information given to the other party is used without permission, and the contract is made in your own name. The new contract will be sent to your identity verification address, so you will need to pick it up at your own home. When I forgot, I was billed for a communication fee that I didn't remember, and I finally realized that my mobile phone was illegally acquired.

What's wrong with contracting a mobile phone in your own name?

There is a mobile phone fraud prevention law to prevent crimes using mobile phones such as oleore fraud, but this law requires identity verification for contracts such as mobile phones. Obtaining a mobile phone for unauthorized use of personal information is believed to violate this law. A mobile phone in your name may be used for a crime. Also, the payment obligation lies with the contractor. Even if the receiving agent says, "I will pay here, so I don't have to pay", if there is no payment, the contractor will be billed. Even if the credit card used for the contract is fraudulently used, the contractor will be billed later. To cancel the contract, you may have to pay tens of thousands of yen per contract due to penalties and terminal charges. In the unlikely event that you cannot use the monthly charge or pay the call charge and the contract is forcibly canceled, you may be registered in the "Non-payer Information Exchange System" of the Telecommunications Carriers Association, and you may not be able to make a contract when you have a mobile phone in the future. If the charge includes installment payment of the terminal price, the accident information will be registered in the credit information agency and the credit card or loan will not be examined.
