A video allegedly showing a Nishinippon City Bank employee filming inside a branch has circulated widely on X since around April 29, prompting the bank to begin a fact-finding investigation. The footage, believed to originate from the social media app BeReal, appears to show areas behind a bank counter, including documents, computer screens, and a whiteboard displaying figures related to loan balances and deposit targets. Social media users have suggested the video may identify a specific branch based on visible materials. The bank stated it is aware of the post and is verifying the details. Financial institutions typically restrict smartphone use and filming in operational areas, and if confirmed, the incident could violate internal information management rules.
