90# on your telephone - - not a joke
I dialed '0' and asked the operator to confirm if this was correct, so please pass it on.
I received a telephone call last evening from an individual identifying himself as a Telephone 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 circulating in B.C. Alta. Ont. NB. from local jails and prisons.
DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE !
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 K
