Claimed to be calling from O2, when I advised they shouldn’t be cold calling me because I’m registered with TPS they said I had a sim and account with them - I have not, I moved away from O2 ten years ago.

Received a call from this number claiming to be from O2. The caller said it was a “final call” and asked how I was getting on with O2. I have not been with O2 for over half a year, so this sounded suspicious. When I said I was no longer with O2, the caller asked which provider I had moved to. I ended the call without giving any details. Possible scam or cold call pretending to be O2.
