The only person saying it is a premium line scam is the same poster 'Ron' so I doubt it very much.

"Did the newspaper find out that the phone operators know about this but are prepared to go along with it because they get a percentage of the total take."

PMSL Ron needs to get out more..... ;)

You cannot be charged for an incoming call unless you are roaming on a mobile or agree up front to accept a reverse charge.

Thus such a scam does not exist, move along, nothing to see ;)

I asked him to call me later.

Later Ron :Suspiciou
