i just though you might want to no that there is an email virus going round called "LIFE IS BEUTIFUL" so if you get it dont open it or itl wipe your hard drive...suposedly.

Also my mum just told me
there is phone scam going round.
If someone rings you and tells you there are an engineer cheking the line. Either press #09 or just hang the fuck up becuse they are gonna hack the phone line and use up all your credit or whatnot

er.. I think they just call you and when you press the button it autcomatically connects you to a line that costs a few £ a minute... That's how some of these work anyway.. heh

It could happen to anyone.

And I think what Zog said is kind of the same thing, and is quite common.

Thanx for the advice candy man.

Well, since this scam is in the UK, people in the US are probably pretty safe from it (it's not worth the long distance you'd have to pay for to get money from US lines). But, there are others in the US that are probably doing this. The solution to your problems? Get Caller ID :D!

My caller ID is an external one connected up to my phone (a regular one), and it shows both name and number. If either one is unavailable, it shows unavailable (which is a good tip off for telemarketers/scamers). If it's a private listing, it's shown as private listing.
