Duck Stamp has Phone Sex Hotline number on it!

About 3.5 million stamps sold by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service include a telephone number connecting customers to a phone sex hotline. The Feds said it was a typo, but too costly to reprint.

The Federal Government said they will continue selling a stamp directing customers to a phone sex hotline because it would cost too much to reprint them.

About 3.5 million duck stamps sold by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service were supposed to include a telephone number so customers could buy the Migratory Bird Conservation and Hunting Edition.

Instead, the correct number, 1-800-STAMP24, the number printed was 1-800-TRAMP24, a number for a phone sex hotline called "Intimate Encounters."

Josh Winchell, a spokesman with Fish and Game, said it's a typo and too expensive to reprint.

The $15 stamp is required for any waterfowl hunter over 16 years of age. The stamps raise $25 million annually for wetland acquisition. They are sold at post offices and sporting goods stores that sell hunting and fishing licenses.

The number longer works as of this writing.
