If you receive a telephone call from an individual who identifies himself as being an AT&T Service Technician conducting a test on your telephone line, or anyone else who asks you to do the following,
DON’T!
They will say that in order to complete the test you should press 9, zero, hash (90#) and then hang up. if you do, this gives them full access to your phone line, allowing them to make LONG DISTANCE, INTERNATIONAL or CHAT LINE CALLS BILLED TO YOUR ACCOUNT.
Remember - DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE.
Please pass this information on to friends and family. It may save someone a lot of money.
