Scam call?

[Ivanian]

Just had a call on my mobile, they said they were from O2. Said that in my area (south London) they are shutting down 4G from 5pm from this Thursday, and that they need to send a new SIM for 5G. Has anyone heard about this?

[Enlli · Accepted solution]

No. Sounds like scammers.

Hope you didn't provide them any information
