Received a text at 7:10pm

O2:We were unable to process your latest bill. In order to avoid fees, update your payment information via: <Link Removed>

Checked my account and I’m all paid upto date. I did click on the link and it looks legit however there’s no padlock at the top of the browser but it looks like the normal 02 log in page.

Hi @FeeT 

It’s a scam and has been reported frequently on here.

Block the number and do not follow any links.

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