Alert - Telephone Scam

borg.com

"The 90# Telephone Scam: A half dozen or so variations of this alert have been in wide circulation since last February. The scam is real, but it does not affect typical residential phone customers."

"What the warning letter floating around the Net doesn't say is that this scam only works on telephones where you have to dial 9 to get an outside line. Unless you have to dial 9 to get an outside line at home, this scam does not affect residential telephone users. Dialing "nine-zero-pound" on a residential phone will only give you a busy signal. That's it."
