SCAM ALERT: FYI PLEASE READ
Dear all:
A friend of mine recently recieved a call on his T-Mobile phone from someone claiming to be from T-Mobile. My friend posted what happened on his livejournal:
"I just got a call on my cell phone from somebody claiming to be from T-Mobile and claiming to offer me a rebate. Being the suspicious person that I am, I noticed that something didn't sound quite right about the situation. He asked for my name and social security #, which I did not give. I pressed the caller for information (ie his supervisor's name, and how he had my address), and he hung up, knowing that the scam was up.
So if you're a T-Mobile customer and get a call from an unidentified number from somebody claiming to be from T-Mobile, hang up on them, or better yet, get a tape recorder."
Please be cautious when recieving such calls!
If you recieve one of these calls hang up and report this to your wireless provider. No wireless carrier will call you and ask you for your full social security number. SPREAD THE WORD.
