Read it now and pass it on!   90# on your telephone     I dialed '0', to check this out, asked the operator,  who confirmed that this was correct  so please pass it on . . . (l also checked out Snopes.com. This is true, and also applies to cell phones!)     PASS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW     I received a telephone call last evening from an individual identifying himself as an AT&T Service Technician (could also be Telus) who was conducting a test on the telephone lines. He stated that to complete the test I should touch nine(9), zero(0), the pound sign (#), and then hang up. Luckily, I was suspicious and refused.    Upon contacting the telephone company, I was informed that by pushing 90#, you give the requesting individual full access to your telephone line, which enables them to place long distance calls billed to your home phone number.      I was further informed that this scam has been originating from many local jails/prisons   DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE.      The GTE Security Department requested that I share this information with EVERYONE I KNOW.      After checking with Verizon they also said it was true, so do not dial 90# for anyone !!!!! PLEASE HIT THAT FORWARD BUTTON AND PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!                         _
