    Always best to excercise a little extra caution with anything involving unexpected phone calls. Just my opinion, you hear of these premium number scams.
  • Hi, if you receive a call from a company called JM finance based in Montreal Cananda asking to purchase any shares you have AVOID!!!! it is a scam, they ask if you would like to sell the shares for much more than they are worth, because an imaginery client of theirs is looking to take over the company, you have your shares in. The website looks fantastic, but don't be fooled!
  • I also had a phone call from this number, although it was at 03:53 this morning. As in the middle of the night, I think it's just a hoax call... obviously I didn't answer or call back as I didn't know the number until recently when I googled it.
