Title: Another 'Phone Scam
Post by: tikay on January 21, 2007, 05:14:59 PM
I had THIS text last night.....

"We currently have a message awaiting your collectiion. To collect your message, just call 0871 872 xxxx". (Last four digits withheld by me).

And the text came from this number, again, I've with-held the last 4 numbers... "+2010599XXXX".

Where would "+201" be?

Any ideas what that's all about? Needless to say, I never chanced it.

Think I'll ask Thewy to ring it for me.

0871 is 10p/min from a BT line.
