Email from @mediamessaging.o2.co.uk?

[Anonymous]

I have received an email from @mediamessaging.o2.co.uk saying that the number 0779******* has sent me a picture message. There is an attachment of 69bytes named id-0000.txt. I have never received one of these emails before and am wondering if it is a genuine email from o2 or a possible malicious email. Has anyone else had one of these?

Or details have been circulating for a good while now. I've had emails but they always seem to go into the spam folder,  possibly due to the originating ip address.

These messages are being emailed again.

It states I have been sent a picture, but the file on the attachment is a text file.

Also I dont recognise the phone number, I dialled it and it is an abroad dialing tone not the UK.

Deleted the email without opening, just incase!

the number to look out for is 07599057912@mediamessaging.02.co.uk

Block the contact on your phone so you don’t get anymore too.

Hi & @Lou3 to O2 Community where everyone helps each other... for your comment... and to @MI5 for the suggestion...

This is surely a phishing email as following replies have made clear. The attachment with a non-specific name is suspicious.

Sure is......
