溫哥華的朋友注意

提醒住溫哥華的朋友

最近有自稱是Telus電話公司的人佯裝要測試電話，請你按下90#，請千萬不要按，那是詐騙集團設陷利用你家的電話打長途或付費電話。請大家小心。

Warning~ 90# on your telephone

You may want to pass this on to family or friends

I dialed '0' and asked the operator to confirm if this was correct,

Friends, so please pass it on.

I received a telephone call last evening from an individual, identifying himself as a Telus Serviceman, who was conducting a test on the telephone-lines. He stated that to complete the test I should

touch nine (9) and then zero (0), followed by the pound sign (#), and then to hang up. 

Luckily, I was suspicious, and I refused.

Upon contacting the telephone company, I was informed that by pushing 90#, you are giving the requesting individual full access to your telephone line, which enables them to place long distance calls billed to your home phone number.

I was further informed that this scam has been originating from many of B.C.Alta.Ont.NB. local jails and prisons.

DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE !

The GTE Security Department requested that I share this information with EVERYONE I KNOW. After checking with Telus, they said it was true, so do not dial 90# for anyone!

PLEASE HIT THAT FORWARD BUTTON AND PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW.
