Verizon $59 is a Scam

Happy Summer to all! A friend asked me to help him take advantage of a $59 "special offer" from Verizon Wireless. He had been called several times and urged to go online to claim a $59 credit for his mobile phone bill. When I checked out the link, my browser detected it as suspicious and would not open it. Verizon's website has a number of postings to warn people about this scam, so be careful. I am so glad my internet security did not allow this one to open. Maureen
