It used to be a major problem here in Florida. It was common for collect calls to come in at 2:00-3:00 in the morning. The operator would say, "I have a collect call from Joe Blow at the So-and-So Correction Facility, will you accept the charges?" [Uh, no!] "I'm sorry to have bothered you." I read once that a caller could ask you to press a combination of numbers, like #69, and that would give the caller an outline line to call anywhere he/she wanted...and the charges would go on your phone. Don't know whether that was true or not. Anyway, it was in the paper that the practice of prisoners making random collect calls was stopped, although calls home to their friends/families must be made collect since they don't have money to put in a pay phone. Maybe their families can give them a calling card, now. I was happy when those calls stopped...for sure! +5
