On August 6, the Financial Services Agency (FSA) and the National Police Agency of Japan formally requested that the Japan Virtual Currency Exchange Association (JVCEVA) enhance its efforts to combat virtual currency fraud. This initiative includes the introduction of 11 new anti-fraud rules aimed at improving security measures across all exchanges.
The new regulations require exchanges to implement a pre-registration system for withdrawal addresses and to tighten transaction monitoring protocols. These changes come in response to a rise in investment solicitation fraud and increasingly sophisticated scams, including those conducted via social media platforms.
Among the key requirements, exchanges must establish rigorous identity verification processes and clearly inform users about the illegality of buying or selling accounts. Additionally, there will be withdrawal restrictions applied after users deposit fiat currency or purchase virtual currency, aimed at preventing fraudulent transactions.
日本加密货币监管再出新规！FSA与国家警察厅发布11条反欺诈规则
8月6日，日本金融服务局（FSA）与国家警察厅正式要求日本虚拟货币交易所协会（JVCEVA）加强打击虚拟货币欺诈的工作。此项举措包括引入11条新的反欺诈规则，旨在提高所有交易所的安全措施。
新规要求交易所实施提款地址的预注册系统，并收紧交易监控协议。这些变化是针对投资诈骗和日益复杂的骗局（包括通过社交媒体平台进行的诈骗）上升的反应。
在主要要求中，交易所必须建立严格的身份验证流程，并明确告知用户买卖账户的非法性。此外，在用户存入法定货币或购买虚拟货币后，将施加提款限制，以防止欺诈交易。
