Mobile Phone Scam
 
If you receive a phone call on your mobile from any person, saying
that,
he or she is a company engineer, or telling you 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.

:wonder:
"Spreading via email is a hoax about a cell phone scam. It warns of a technique that some callers do to make cloning of the target cellular phone possible. Variations of this message also warns of the modus operandi carried out to get mobile phone users shoulder overseas phone expenses. "
