Dear All
If you receive a phone call on your mobile from any person, saying that he
or she is a company engineer, or telling that they're checking your mobile
line, and you have to press #90 or #09 or any other number, end this call
immediately without pressing any numbers.
There is a fraud company using a device that once you press #90 or #09
they can access your 'SIM' card and make calls at your expense.
Forward this message to as many colleagues, relatives and friends as you
can, to stop it.
Many thanks for your time regarding this matter, take care and regards.

People need to do little research before spreading these silly E-Mails

Thanks for the info Yoy. It might come in handy knowing of any kind of scam is going around. Better be safe then sorry. Scammers have to be brought to the light, so they can being uncovered.

I know another scam they used to have somewhat similar to this one. You would get a call saying that you had an important message, and to connect you had to press a 2 or 3 digit code, in actuality you were accepting a long distance call, almost like a 900 number calling you, but still getting charged. Was probably from some country like Guam or some off the wall place that the number was routed through.
