Subj: Fwd: Fw: Phone Scam Warning -Forwarded Subject: Phone Scam Warning Author: Sally A Simpson at AZCCM18 Date: 2/24/98 12:58 PM All, This message was forwarded to me, and I have verified it with AT&T. It is true, and needs to be transmitted widely. Thanks for your help! Sandy Dominick Corporate Travel, Customer Support 602-554-8147 If you get a call from someone identifying themselves as a phone technician performing a test, and this person asks you to touch nine (9), zero (0), pound sign (#) and then hang up - REFUSE TO DO SO! By pushing 90# you are giving the individual that called you access to your telephone line and allowing them to place a long distance telephone call, with the charge appearing on your telephone bill. We were further informed that this scam has been originating from many of the local jails/prisons. Please pass the word.
