Security As a customer of new telecommunications equipment, you should be aware of the significant and growing problem of theft of long distance services by third parties, known commonly as “toll fraud.” It is particularly important that you understand and take appropriate steps to deal with this crime because under applicable tariffs, you will be responsible for payment of associated toll charges. AT&T cannot be responsible for such charges and will not make any allowance or give any credit resulting from toll fraud. Toll fraud can occur despite the preventative efforts of network providers and equipment manufacturers. Toll fraud is a potential risk for any customer with telecommunications equipment having one or more of the following features: (1) remote access, (2) automated attendant, (3) voice mail, (4) remote administration and maintenance, and (5) call forwarding (remote). This is not a product or design defect, but a risk associated with equipment having one or more of the features described above. If your new telecommunications equipment possesses any of these features, please consult the relevant portion of your documentation for further details and specific procedures to reduce the risk of toll fraud or contact your AT&T dealer for further details.
