Warning ( The latest con )

[skimmin2day]

Be carefull guys, ther is a new con going on where you get an Email asking for work and to ring him back the number is a 070 blaH BLAH BLAH so you think its a mobile,
But it goes to an American answer machine.
Its a con and you get charged a lot of money for it apparently.
I typed the phone number into google after i got through to american answer machine becuse i though it was odd then i found out it was a conman,he uses lot of different names and numbers so be careful

The email i got sent is copied below......

yeah that answer machine I am assuming will be a long message and you will be charged £1 a minute or whatever to leave one

I've just called it. I left a really long message detailing my qualifications and work history, all about my upbringing and ended with singing the American national anthem. I really think that will get me the job. Best of all, I used my mobile. Thanks for the lead Skimmin.
