Sentai Actor Caught in Fraud Scam: “I’m Going into a New Business with a Very Popular Actor”…The Falsehoods He Spoke to His Friends
Why did Gokai Silver of "Pirate Sentai Gokaiger" fall victim to a special fraud?
A Sentai actor, who had been the dream of children, became the victim of a scam.
On October 26, the Joto Police Station of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department arrested Junya Ikeda, 31, on suspicion of fraud. The suspect is suspected of cheating the man out of his cash card.
Ikeda won the runner-up prize in the “Junon Super Boy Contest” in 2006 and also appeared in “Pirate Sentai Gokaiger” (TV Asahi). A friend who has known Ikeda for 16 years reveals the true face of the suspect.
A friend who has known Ikeda for 16 years reveals the true nature of the suspect: “Ikeda and I have been friends since we were in junior high school. We co-starred in the drama “Our Textbook” (Fuji TV) in 2007, and we became close friends. Ikeda on set was, in a word, a rascal. For some reason, he was three years older than Ikeda and put on an air of seniority.
He even took shots at co-stars who were older than Ikeda. He also took away a video game console that a younger girl was playing during a break. I once took the cell phone of a girl I liked on set without permission, and Hiro Mizushima, who played the teacher, got mad at me.
