There is a new phone scam going around.  The call starts out as, “Hello!  We would like to inform you that you have won a free stay at Marriott Hotels!”  The automated voice will then wait for either a hang up or a response to the offer.  It is strongly advised to simply end the call for if the call is continued, credit card numbers and personal financial information are the scam’s target.  When asked about this strange fraudulent activity, many of Mountain View’s students have reported receiving this call once a day for nearly a week.  The Mountain View community advises all who receive unknown calls to be conscientious during this outbreak of fraud. ​
