Subject: 90 # on your telephone

Never heard this one before. Bizarre enough to be true. 90# on your

telephone

Dial '0', to check this out, and ask the operator for confirmation. It can

also be checked out on Snopes.com. It 'also applies to cell phones!)

PASS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW

'I received a telephone call last evening from an individual identifying

himself as an AT & T Service Technician (could also be Telus) who was

conducting a test on the telephone lines. He stated that to complete the

test I should touch nine(9), zero(0), the pound sign (#), and then hang up.

Luckily, I was suspicious and refused.

Upon contacting the telephone company, I was informed that by pushing 90#,

you give 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 local

jails/prisons.

DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE.

The GTE Security Department requested that I share this information with

EVERYONE I KNOW. After checking with Verizon they also said it was true, so

do not dial 90# for anyone! PLEASE HIT THAT FORWARD BUTTON AND PASS THIS ON

TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!'
