I keep getting missed calls from unknown numbers. I never answer as I think they might be trying to hack my phone.

I get missed call messages saying: THis is a free call alert from 02. 

Are these numbers from 02? 441449516443 & 441753291239?

Missed call alerts are from O2 but that does not mean it is O2 calling you.

See descriptive guide here Guide: All you need to know about O2 Voicemail 901 

General rule is to never give out personal info to any cold caller.

Never agree to anything on the phone.

Block and delete numbers calling you.

See guides.

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.
