 PLEASE READ THIS MESSAGE - VERY IMPORTANT WARNING  If you receive a
  phone call on your mobile from any person, saying that,  he or she is a
  company  engineer, or telling that they're checking your mobile line,
  and you have  to  press # 90 or #09 or any other number. End this call
  immediately without  pressing any numbers.
  There is a fraud company using a device that once  you  press #90 or #09
  they can access your "SIM" card and make calls at your  expense.

  if  you  answer the call, your phone will be infected by a virus. This
  virus will  erase  all IMEI and IMSI information from both your phone
  and your SIM card,  which will  make your phone unable to connect with
  the telephone network.  You will have to buy a new phone.
 
   This information has been confirmed by
   both Motorola and Nokia. There are over 3 Million mobile phones being
  infected  by this virus in all around the world now. You can also check
