Hi,  i have just received a message that says : 'your account for 07********* has been limited due to security reasons.  Please re-confirm your identity today or account will be locked' 

below this message is a box it tells you to tap on to complete details.

 

Im pretty sure this is a scam, but just wanted to make sure as i dont want my phone to go off!!  has anyone else had a message like this, supposedly from o2?

thanks

T

Most definitely a scam. O2 would never ask you to do this.
