If people read something take a few minutes...

Re: SCAMS

Pressing buttons will NOT redirect your call or charge you differently. You can't start out in a low cost call and midway jump to a premi...

Pressing buttons on a phone will not compromise you or charge you in anyway. Unless you key in your credit card or bank details. Pressing keys will never compromise you or bill you.
