New Phone Scam

New Phone scam 17 11 06

Hi everyone, this has come to me via Heather, via another coordinator, originating from Lancashire police

If you receive a phone call on your mobile from any person, saying that, he or she is a company engineer, or telling that they're checking your mobile line, and you have to press #90 or #09 or any other number. End this call immediately without pressing any numbers. There is a fraud company using a device that once you press #90 or #09 they can access your "SIM" card and make calls at your expense.
