I received the Pointbooks email scam below today from an AOL address. The scam claims my premium plan trial period, whatever that is, is almost over and I will be billed to continue. Then, it asks me to call this telephone number, 1-929-224-5129, if I want to stop the subscription. But, this is a trick, used to frighten potential victims into contacting the scammers responsible for the fake email.
