When someone wants you to pass a message on to everyone you know, check it
out first. Every time.

This link addresses the 9-0-# scam. Well, partial scam. What the 9-0-#
warning message doesn't say, is that you are only in danger of being caught
up in this phone scam if you have the kind of phone where you have to dial 9
to get an outside line. Most residential phones are not like that.

Please check out the link above for the full story.

Sorry to clutter up our list with this kind of thing, but I didn't want all
of you to panic.
