I got the following txt saying to call to get extra download allowance...... O2: Need more data? We've noticed you used it all up recently. Boost your allowance and speed things up with a Bolt-On. To find out more, call 2202. the txt was from "O2UK" all upper case this has got to be a scam because I have over 400mb of my allowance left..... just be warned

Extortion?
