    Date 23/05/2025

    Q.

    I would like to ask you about unauthorized access to customer accounts at securities companies.
    According to the Financial Services Agency, from January to April 2025, unauthorized access to customer accounts of securities companies resulted in 6,380 account hijackings and 3,505 unauthorized transactions, with sales amounting to approximately 161.2 billion yen and purchases amounting to approximately 143.7 billion yen.
    Since the time of the Kishida administration, the Japanese government has promoted financial investment on a large scale, such as the new NISA, but as a result, the number of amateur retail investors has increased rapidly, and it seems possible that they have become the victims of fraud groups.
