Someone pretending to be from O2 and that G3 and G4 were closing and I needed an upgrade. Told her that my phone wasn't O2 and then she said did I have Sky because there was a tie up with O2 and Sky. Confirmed that I did have Sky and she claimed she could get 30% off - which seemed very odd if she was from O2. She then wanted email and other other information to identify me. I told her she had phoned me not the other way round and so I wanted her identity inmformation. Call soon ended!

Claimed to be from National Grid, saying that our meter was faulty and that they were coming round on the 5th August to replace it. 1 - Our meter is not faulty. 2- National Grid does NOT install meters. Beware, this is a Scam.
