Japanese Company Hires "Scary People" for Dispute Resolution

In Japan, a company provides a unique service where you can hire people, often with shaved heads and tattoos, to help resolve your problems.

These people, called "scary people", can go with you to confront someone causing issues.

They help with various problems, like workplace conflicts or noisy neighbors.

Clients pay about $140 for 30 minutes.

The company says they follow the law.

Some people like the idea, believing that intimidating people can be effective against bullies.
