This however strikes me as a very disgusting scam operation that I think needs to be publicized through very channel possible. --------------- Forwarded Message --------------- Date: 9/12/96 12:52 PM From: Sandi Rigney Folks, I received a page on my wife's pager and returned the call. After listening for a couple of seconds to the recorded message, I immediately hung up. I called my wife to see if she was playing a joke and discovered the following: There is a pager scam going on right now. Someone is sending pages to get folks to dial a # that costs $25 just to dial. There is no warning so we had better get the news out to everyone ASAP. The number is 809-404-5468. Don't call it! ----- End Included Message ----- Received: from ns.ezh.nl [137.174.112.59] by vbv40.ezh.nl with SMTP-OpenVMS via TCP/IP; Wed, 25 Sep 1996 10:24 +0200 Received: by ns.ezh.nl; (5.65v3.2/1.3/10May95) id AA21974; Wed, 25 Sep 1996 03:24:19 +0200 Received: from eartha.mills.edu by ns (smtpxd); id XA25750 Received: from by eartha.mills.edu via SMTP (940816.SGI.8.6.9/930416.SGI) for id SAA01520; Tue, 24 Sep 1996 18:24:16 -0700 Date: Tue, 24 Sep 1996 18:24:16 -0700 Message-Id: <199609250122.SAA01424@eartha.mills.edu> Errors-To: madole@ella.mills.edu Reply-To: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Originator: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Sender: tuning@eartha.mills.edu
