i got a text like that months ago, the number actually works, but i dont think he is really going to legalize it. even though i recently got that text again. i read in a high times magazine that he wasnt going to. the section was even named "OBAMA NO WANNA MARIJUANA" hahah, fuck it though.. blaze on

wow this number is a bunch of bullshit that i just called and seconds later, i found out that i just got the shit scammed out of me. fuck.

I wish that would happen, but it won't. 1 million is a lot more than it sounds. that's 1/300 Americans to call...

This is just silly.

I got a message with the same number and found out that it was a scam... dont call... by hitting the # its like excepting charges to the scam... put the number in gooogle and check the results

SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM

Everything was pointing at “scam”, but this severs the last bit of potential legitimacy that the number had.
So please, DO NOT CALL 973-409-3274 as it appears to be a type of scam to either harvest phone numbers or even potentially charge you money by hitting the pound key (which would be the equivalent of you accepting charges).
STOP sharing this phone number as well. I literally sit and watch person after person share this on twitter thinking they are helping the cause when in reality they are just helping these scammers reach new victims. If you have shared this link, please post this update to let others know to keep an eye on their phone bill for any unauthorized charges.
Again, just to be clear: This number is not a legitimate polling number associated with any known marijuana advocacy group. Calling it does not help/support marijuana legislation in anyway and only risks you becoming a victim to some type of phone scam.
If you really want to help legalize marijuana, consider making a contribution to MPP, NORML, or other reputable, legitimate marijuana advocacy groups. Just like the many online petitions available, a “phone call poll” will hardly destroy prohibition.
Thanks again Mr. Rattray for your prompt response!
UPDATE: Here is what one victim had to say about their experience:
“i called and immediatly after i hung up i get a call from mediacom (my internet, phone, cable company) saying i have several new charges on my phone bill and they was chastising me bout it for like 5 minutes, i was like fuck it i’ll pay it, click.
so its a scam and now i have a few extra dollars to fork up on tha first!!!!”
