Scam message claiming to be from the O2 team.

I think that I have received a scam message claiming to be from the O2 team. I have not opened it nor have I clicked on any links. I have taken a screenshot of it. Who do I send it to??

Must be something going around.
A similar post from earlier today https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Off-topic/Aleting-folk-to-spam-or-phishing-O2-bills/td-p/1046723

I very recently signed up with O2 and now I am getting spam phishing claiming to be from O2 on my work email, which I never gave to O2. Coincidence? Or is there a leakage from where I signed up. It is not hard to get from my name to my work email as my employer sees fit to publish all our contact details on line ( a UK university than thinks it is a global network). The messages came from multipe spoofed addresses but all said the same thing. You will be billed £233

You're the 4th one today - They are just standard phising emails that anyone could get regardless of actually having an o2 account or not.
