suspect fraud

[lor64]

i have just received a private text saying my fee for O2 has been rejected and my account needs updated. There is a link and i suspect a fraud as all other texts are from O2 not a private number.

Also no email from O2.

Anyone else got one of these before

It's a well known scam.
Block the number and report it free to 7726.
Don’t open any links or enter any information.

Hi @lor64 

This is fraud. Don't press any links. 

Well done for asking here.

Welcome to the o2 community forum and stay alert and take care.  Lots of best wishes TallTrees
