Well known scam on here. They are trying to get access to your account, usually to order a high end phone.

@Supermjj No it is not. Scammers change their numbers constantly.

It will be someones genuine phone number that has been spoofed. They will use it for a short while then move on

[Supermjj]

It is well documented on "Who called me" going back months. But i'll edit it out if you wish.

Phone number removed. Just a word of note they wanted me to reset my password temporary, they even sent me an e-mail which looked genuine from O2 to do so. But i said call back tomorrow because i wasn't ready to do it then, they said they would. Now blocked. First real scam on my mobile, my landline is all 99.9% scam.
