Hi
I received a message from the number +447943611569 and the message said:
O2:We were unable to process your latest payment. In order to avoid fees, please update your information via: [mod edit: removed to ensure safety]
I believe this is a scam and someone is trying to take some money

Hi @PRbetovida 

It's a well known scam.

Block the number and do not follow any links.

Had exactly the same message yesterday two hours before my phone was being delivered.

Surely O2 should be looking into this and making there customers aware especially after your purchase

The problem is, the scammers keep changing the number.

This scam is operating across all networks, not just O2.
