fraudulent schemes

CCTV reports expose sophisticated scams targeting aspiring live streamers. Companies lure individuals with promises of income and training, then provide no support, leading to zero viewership. When streamers try to leave, they face fabricated contract breaches and demands for massive penalties. One streamer was threatened with a ¥500,000 penalty after seven days of no viewers. Victims often pay smaller fees to terminate contracts due to legal threats. Aspiring streamers are urged to scrutinize contracts and verify company backgrounds.
