I've received 2 private message responses  from 2 separate people both asking me to contact  O2 on +44 7380 321 529

 

Is this a scam?, as I do not recognise this as an O2 number

As they were both private messages here I'm asking 

@Kei-M_O2 our Community Manager to contact you for their usernames

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

@egt It's a well known scam.

Forward the scam number to 7726 - It's free.

Other ways to report here including Action Fraud website:

https://www.o2.co.uk/help/safety-and-security/phishing-and-smishing-advice

How to block a number:

If you've given them any information, change your password. Not just your O2. All of them.

Notify your bank if you haven't done so already.

I reported one yesterday too.

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.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
