I got a call from BellSouth informing me that they were mailing a notice to me advising that there would be $175.66 on my next phone bill for calls made to a 900#.
I got the notice and saw that there were several calls charged to my phone over a three (3) day period - all around midnight. The strange thing was that one call was placed at 12:12 A.M. And lasted 2 minutes and the very next call was also placed at 12:12 A.M. And lasted for 17 minutes. How does that make sense!
I called the billing company, Integretel, and was informed that someone downloaded some software onto my computer, which in turn, dialed a company called InfoServicZZ. I told the lady that there was no possible way that this was done on my computer because I work for a living and am not stupid enough to be on the computer after midnight. She then tried to say that someone else must have done it; to which I replied was not possible either because the computer is kept in my bedroom.
I finally got enough of her mouth and told her that they had better give me a credit for this bill or I would be contacting every consumer satisfaction agency from here to high heaven. Needless to say, I got my full credit.
I would like to warn others that if there is a trojan virus on your computer that says it cannot be cleaned, deleted or quarantined because it is "write protected", contact your ISP immediately! This is how people gained access to my computer.
