Yusuke claims that he has a photographic memory, otherwise known as an eidetic memory.
Regarded as a superpower that humans can actually possess, however, if placed in the wrong hands, it could prove dangerous.

On a daily basis, Yusuke had access to hundreds of customers. Most of them paid for their purchases with a credit card.
As they comfortably exited the store, little did they know what lay in wait for them.

It turns out that Yusuke was using his photographic memory to defraud customers that paid with their credit cards.
He would remember the 16-digit card number, holder’s name, expiry date, and security code.

Perfectly Penned
Upon further investigation, Police found a notebook filled with details of about 1300 people who were defrauded by Yusuke.
They revealed that he would buy items online then sell it to pawn shops for cash.

It was the delivery of the two shoulder bags to his apartment that tipped off the authorities who placed him under arrest.
They suspect that Yusuke had defrauded much more people than the names at his apartment and hope that he reveals it all now that his scheme is over.
