I have on my cell phone a text message that reads " NO LIE 4 REAL Vote to legalize marijuana. CNN today, Obama will consider with 1 million votes. Call 973-409-3274, listen then press # ." i called the operator and 973 is a NJ number, no further info. Perhaps some of you with more time on your hands could check this out to see if this is real or a scam. If this is real, then we need to get the message out, cause there isn't much publicity on this.

Over here their scam is to offer you a service or prize, a number to ring. This number costs 1000% normal phone charges that they pocket. The call automatically subscribes you to them so you recieve more offers, and get charged for them sending them to you, and you answering them, both at 1000%. When you work out what's happening, when your phone's credit dissapears; or get a huge bill. you ring up and complain and are patched thru to a call centre; where you are told sorry and you are just out of pocket for calls, or you must pay a cancellation fee to get out of your 'contract' with them. your call or text is legally, in a loop holey way, a binding agreement based on your acceptance of their invitation to call. so check your phone bill. lol nigel

| Agree with Nigel, there are quite a few scams like that about; obviously they've gone for a different take on this one

| What it is: Conducted by Humor Hotlines. Marijuana Phone Poll NOT a Scam, Just Confusing | Show Me the Facts What it isnt: A scam. A good idea to call. Well intended or not, the purpose of this is to compile data about mj users and send it to the govt. So i suggest you dont fucking call it. | ||
