On April 1 While I was driving to work I received a text message. It was WD: # is the password & Web Access plus SMS Queries, Send-to-Phone SMS Features, and Other Value Adds. 877 244 7035 9.99 mthly
I looked it over and was puzzled as to what this was. Then moments later another text message came. It read FWD: SGC Web Access Plus SMS Queries Call Us Anytime 877 244 7035 9.99 mthly help, stop, info. SGC Web Access Plus SMS.
Again I looked it over and again I was puzzled. When I arrived at work I decided to call the 877 number. This is when I found out that My Cell is being charged $9.99.
The person on the other end of the call said that I will be charged! I told him that I never ordered ANYTHING!!! It appears that if they find a cell number they will just charge you and rip you off all out of the Blue! I said to them since this only happened moments ago kill all charges! He refused to do so. At that point I decided to contact Verizon wireless. Verizon informed me that it was too soon to look up the charges but they will put a block on these type of services and it would not effect my texting. I said please do it. They also put a flag on my account to look for the charge when it appears and will contact me when it pops up. Hopefully I have headed them off at the pass on this one. This appears to be a scam company that is using IP telephones since it had lots of breakup inthe audio not the type of audio from cell phones. This indicates that they can pickup and change location at a moments notice to avoid capture. Also my reasearch on the address indicates that Network Solutions is aiding them by being a front for their address.
