In November, with our phone bill, we received over $1000 in bogus charges from USBI on behalf of Telliss. These charges were from a series of calls made to England by an automated dialer accessed through a browser hijacker.
In one night there were 62 calls made to the same number. The really ridiculous thing about these calls is that they are all at least 6 min in length and occur every 3-4 min. TO THE SAME NUMBER! How is this possible?
This is apparently an adult site scam. They pad their income by charging innocent people for long distance calls they did not make to international porn sites they did not visit.
I have contacted both Telliss and USBI via e-mail and have filed an online complaint with the FCC. If you see strange charges on your phone bill take action immediately.
