Re: Scam alert

Hers the info about the scam I said I would get.
First I rec'd the e-mail about it then got this from a friend.

i went onto the ICSTIS website and put in the phone number on the email and got the following response, so is this a genuine worry or is it an actual email chain letter-type scam pretending to be a geniune security warning?!!!!

This is what we know about the number you entered (03066611911).

Unfortunately we don't recognise this as a valid phone number.

Premium rate phone numbers start with 09 and are 11 digits long.
International numbers start with 00 and are usually longer than UK ones.
Other common UK phone numbers are directory enquiries (all starting with 118) and mobile phone 'shortcodes' that are usually 4 or 5 digits long.
If you've tried again and we still can't find find anything you will need to contact your phone company. Their number can be found at the top of your phone bill.


This is the letter that ICSTIS sent last year.
