37-year-old woman arrested for using lost credit card at Tokyo Disneyland

CHIBA —Police on Wednesday arrested a 37-year-old housewife for buying 65 one-day passports for Tokyo Disneyland with a credit card she found in Urayasu City, Chiba Prefecture.

Kyoko Kuroda was arrested for allegedly using the lost credit card at Tokyo Disneyland’s ticket counter to buy the passports worth about 350,000 yen on Sept 15. According to police, Kuroda found the credit card inside Tokyo Disneyland while she was there with her 8-year-old son.

Kuroda bought 65 passes around 2:30 p.m. and tried to buy more around 4:55 p.m. but the credit card company reported the fraud use to Disneyland. Kuroda tried to flee into the theme park but was soon caught by Disneyland staff.

Kuroda denied the allegations at first but finally confessed, saying, “I wanted to exchange the passes for money to pay back a housing loan.”
