BEWARE- Possible Phone Scam In Virginia

THERE MAY BE A TELEPHONE SCAM BEING PERITRATED ON VIRGINIANS.

IT'S BEEN REPORTED THAT SOME VIRGINIANS HAVE RECEIVED TELEPHONE CALLS FROM AREA CODES: 809,284 AND 876.

THE CALLERS LEAVE MESSAGES THAT EITHER SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED TO A FAMILY MEMBER OR YOU HAVE WON A LARGE PRIZE AND LEAVE A NUMBER WITH ONE OF THE THREE AREA CODES FOR YOU TO CALL THEM BACK.

WHEN YOU CALL THE NUMBER YOU ARE CHARGED $24.00 A MINUTE FOR THE CALL.

THE SCAM IS COMING FROM SOMEWHERE IN THE DOMNICAN REPUBLIC.

IF YOU RECEIVE A CALL ON EITHER 809, 284 OR 876 DO NOT CALL BACK.
