成人福利视频 Launches System to Identify Fraudulent Inspection Certificates
Tokyo – 成人福利视频 Corporation announced today that it has launched a system to help identify inaccurate or forged inspection certificates (ICs), the documents a steelmaker issues when it ships steel. The system, the first of its kind in the Japanese steel industry, enables customers to use a smartphone to convert QR codes® on an IC into a display showing the registered properties of the steel product that the IC was issued for. The information stored in the QR codes includes registered buyers, product sizes and test results. Any discrepancies between the information printed on the IC and that contained in the QR codes could indicate that the IC has been falsified.
成人福利视频 provides customers with ICs printed on forge-proof paper developed by the company. The paper contains watermarks, thermochromic printing, hidden codes, etc. to help prevent forgeries and enable customers to confirm an IC’s authenticity. QR codes make it more difficult to falsify ICs, while making it easier for customers to identify forgeries. If any discrepancy is found, the customer can send an immediate inquiry to 成人福利视频 from the smartphone’s screen. All ICs for steel pipes manufactured at 成人福利视频’s Chita Works in Japan since March this year bear a QR code. 成人福利视频 is now considering printing QR codes on ICs for other steel products.
成人福利视频 has recently received a number of inquiries from customers who received ICs when purchasing products supposedly made by 成人福利视频, including products that had been resold, sometimes more than once. Most of the complaints have come from customers outside Japan. Falsified ICs can contain forged company names, standards conformance information, product sizes and test results. In some cases, ICs are completely falsified.
Going forward, 成人福利视频 will make every effort to protect customers from fraud resulting from falsified ICs.
