They were arrested and charged with using those IDs to fraudulently obtain bank accounts. The prefectural police seized more than 100 licenses alone. The actual number of forged IDs is estimated to be several to dozens of times more.

 The head of the counterfeiting group is defendant Ikoma. He was previously arrested for another fraud and spent time in prison. After his release, he entered a rehabilitation facility. This time, he was also arrested. men who were also arrested this time who were also arrested this time, met each other at the rehabilitation facility.

 At first glance, the counterfeiting group may appear to be a makeshift team created in a rehabilitation facility, but their methods are very clever.
 Whenever there was an application for a part-time job, they would instruct the applicant to take a picture with a photo machine, and the photo data would be used to create an ID card. From there, they have the person in the photo carry the forged ID and open an account at a bank. Similarly, they went around cell phone stores, SIM SIM cards and sold them as &#8220;fly-by-night&#8221; cell phones. As for the address on the driver&#8217;s license, he set it to a vacant room in an apartment that he had checked in the mailbox beforehand. Once the account was set up, the procedure was that the bank would send a passbook to the vacant post, which would be collected later. Since they were making a considerable profit, the amount of forgery must have been extensive.&#8221; (A former investigator)
 The scheme was devised by the defendant Ikoma, who was the head of the group. An old friend of Ikoma&#8217;s said, &#8220;All the know-how for forgery was provided by Ikoma.
 He was the one who came up with the counterfeiting scheme,&#8221; said an old friend of Ikoma&#8217;s. &#8220;All the know-how for counterfeiting came from Ikoma. In fact, he is a major EC EC sites and EC malls and major e-commerce sites. IT and has long been involved in site creation and SE related businesses. As a hobby, he has created various public institution HP of various public institutions for fun. He had a wealth of knowledge, and people around him recognized Ikoma as a &#8220;genius. For him, forging driver&#8217;s licenses was a piece of cake. All of his former hacker friends are white hackers (a group of people who protect against cyber-attacks). IT But because of his criminal record, he could not get such a job,&#8221; he says.
 Ikoma, who was hailed as a &#8220;genius,&#8221; was unable to find a regular job because of his criminal record, and he has once again turned to fraud. Perhaps the most important thing for Ikoma was to have the brains to refrain from committing a criminal act.
