Hope to cut
fraud calls
In an effort to cut down on
fraudulent long distance call-
ing, Bell Canada, starting Oc-
tober 17, will verify all third
number calls billed from coin
telephones. -
This is the third and final
stage of the Company's plan
to cut down on fraudulent
third number calls billed from
a payphone.
Last year, Bell operators
stopped accepting third
number local calls billed from
coin telephones.
On April 15 of this year, on
a. -.jird number long distance
calls from coin telephones
operators began attempting
to contact the billed party to
confirm that the person plac-
ing the call was known and
that the charge was accep-
table. However if verification
was not possible because the
line was busy or there was no
answer, the call was still put
through.
Starling October 17, all
such numbers will have to be
verified before the call is con-
nected. If there is no answer
or a busy signal at the billing
number, the person placing
the call will have the option of
paying by coin. calling collect
or using a long distance Call-•
ing •Card tm • or calling
another time.
Murray Makin, Bell's vice-
president of customer 'ser-
vices said the October.17 date
was chosen to allow
customers who regularly
make third number calls
from coin telephones to obtain
Calling Cards.
"Calling Cards will allow
customers to charge long
distance calls at regular
operator -assisted rates,"
Makin said,
Calling Cards are available
to qualified .business or
residence users at no charge
and can be obtained by com-
pleting the application form
that will be enclosed with
their August telephone bills.
In 1982 there were more
than 2-.0.u00 fraudulent third
number long distance calls
placed from coin telephones
in Bell territory resulting in a
loss of more than $1.3 million.
This is a 90 percent increase
in fraud of this type since
1980.
