Hio everyone,

 

Has anyone else had a scam text from 07471 512397? They asked me to update my account details, which I did (fell for it!!). Have changed all my info, but it's been a real pain!

@Alacazam 

It's a well known scam.
Block the number and report it free to 7726.
DO NOT follow any links or enter any information.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

@Alacazam You need to notify your bank and ensure you change any passwords that you think may be connected to your account.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
