السلام عليكم
قبل نصف ساعة وصلتني مكالمة من رقم غريب و هو :
+23222272728 و هذا الرقم حسب ما قرأت لاحقاً مصدره سيراليون
و هو نوع من انواع الاحتيال المسمى سكام .
اخطر شيء في الموضوع انك لو حاولت الاتصال لهذا الرقم فسيتم حالاً و من
الدقيقة الاولى احتساب مبلغ كبييير جداً . . و حسب احد البريطانيين فهو يقول ان
تكلفتها 15 باوند استرليني .. اي ما يعادل تقريباً 8 دينار . فلذا نرجو من الجميع
الحذر .
طبعاً حسب ما هو مكتوب فإن هذه الارقام تستخدم ما يسمى بخدمات القيمة المضافة
التي تقدمها بعض شركات الاتصالات غير المسئولة .. حيث انها تقدمها حتى للافراد
دونما تأكد من نوعية الخدمة .

Beware the international missed call scam
July 30, 2009

It begins with a missed call from a number starting +232. "Looks like a Southampton code at a glance," thought one target of this simple scam.

Wrong. It's the international dialling code for Sierra Leone, as one unlucky victim discovered last week.

"Got a call from a +232 number, called it back on a pay as you go.

"Got through £16.20 worth of credit when it answered."

Crooks have been using dozens of these numbers in recent days, with automatic dialing equipment that hangs up after one ring.

We've investigated the multi-million-pound international trade in phone numbers that allows a "carrier" in Lebanon to pass a Sierra Leone phone number to "resellers" in countries like Cyprus, the Czech Republic and Belize, who in turn rent them out to anyone who wants to use them to run a "promotion". Or a scam.

These are so-called "value added services" and callers pay whatever their networks charge for international calls.

The dosh gets shared out by everyone involved - from the network, the carrier and the resellers to the "promoter" at the end of the line, who can can earn around 10p per minute.

Surprise We've found similar Sierra Leone numbers used before Christmas for a parcel scam.

Victims received a text from a UK mobile which read: "!!URGENT!! Parcel Awaiting Delivery Call Now On +23222270680 For Delivery Tomorrow International Parcel Delivery."

Identical texts also asked recipients to call an Austrian "+4382" number, including one sold by Maxtis Telecom from Prague, the Czech Republic.

"I stupidly called the number," complained one victim. "It cost me almost £15 on my mobile. I wasn't really expecting any parcels but as I have a lot of family all over the world thought maybe it was a surprise gift."

Another said: "An automated voice kept asking me to enter my mobile number then repeating it back to me incorrectly.

"They were obviously trying to keep me on the line."

That's exactly the idea. Maxtis has a "large portfolio" of these international numbers and says the promoter can "decide the amount to charge the customer by making him hold the line for a defined period of time".

The boss of Maxtis, Jean-Christophe Gramont, who lives in France, was also the boss of New Deal Telecom, barred from running UK premium rates by our watchdog PhonepayPlus since 2005 for non-payment of fines.

Maxtis was not directly involved in the parcel delivery scam and says its lines are not for "illegal or immoral" uses.

Other numbers used by the scammers over a period of at least four weeks came from Ambavox, based in Switzerland.

Ambavox was fined £30,000 last year by PhonepayPlus for another parcel delivery scam using a £1.50-a-minute UK "090" number.

Victims were made to hold for three minutes before they were cut off. Ambavox said it was "completely unaware" of the scam and stopped it when it was told about it.

But it has refused to pay the fine or refund victims, saying that's up to the networks and BT.

It too is now barred from all UK premium rate business.

and
Geoffrey Laffoley-Lane's numbers used by parcel scammers

This parcel delivery scam begins with a text from a UK mobilesaying "!"!!URGENT!! Large Parcel Awaiting Delivery. Please Call NOW on +4382091921605".

One victim was expecting a package but got through to a lengthy answerphone message that cost £9 because the number was registered in Austria.

Several firms shared her £9, including Telecom Austria and its client, a company in Switzerland called Ambavox AG, which supplied it to Keyzone Telecom, based in Cyprus.

Keyzone told us it gave the number to a firm called Maxtis, in the Czech Republic, which in turn passed it to Geoffrey Laffoley-Lane, of CFL Live Ltd, based in Redhill, Surrey.

Laffoley-Lane told them he had re-assigned the number to someone called Craig Johnson.

But Johnson's company name does not appear to exist and the address he used is that of a company formation agent in Aldermaston, Berks.

Johnson used at least three Austrian numbers through Laffoley-Lane, along with nine similar numbers originating in Sierra Leone.

The scam ran in October and November last year. Laffoley-Lane said he couldn't give us further details for Johnson for "data protection" reasons.
