Had a call today from a lady with a very strong accent saying she was from Sky and wanted to offer me money off my bill. I had a very similar call a few days ago (not from this number tho) but again it was a lady with very strong accent "from Sky" wanting to offer me money off but I had to give her my email address so that she could verify me. I said I don't know who you are and if you're from Sky then you've already got my email address so can just email me the details. She didn't like that and was a bit pushy so hung up. The call today didn't even get as far as asking me to confirm my email address as I told her you're not from Sky and hung up! It is a scam as I did call Sky to check and was told no it definitely wasn't them calling.

She said she was calling from Vodafone, but she had a very strong accent & I could see she was calling from Aberdeen! Said she wanted to update my SIM card & did I want to keep my number. I hung up. Knew it was a scam
Claiming to be Apple. Hung up phoned another twice. Did no reply clearly a scam
Claimed to be Vodafone and said they are manually upgrading their SIM card due to operational issues. And unfortunately for him, my service provider is EE. He asked if I received a message and I should verify myself on it. The message never came through, he then asked if I use Vodafone or Lebara, I said Lebara. Then he said Lebara is a child network of Vodafone. I hung up and reported scam, blocked him
Quite persistent, I hung up because I could tell it was a scam and he rung another 2 times. Definitely a scam, please avoid.
