Solved: Calls from people saying I've rang them

Pg23 · ‎14-06-2023

Hi,

Twice today I've had calls from people/numbers I don't know claiming that I've just rang them, which I know for a fact that I didn't do as my has been sat in front of me.

Has my phone or account been compromised?

Thanks in advance

It's just scammers that have spoofed your number.

Not much you can do about it but they will be using a different number tomorrow.

Yep. Number spoofed. Had it a couple of years ago with the landlines and recently with the mobile

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