Scam/Fraud

Called to say they are Three network and due to the Three/Vodaphone merge, there have been system problems so they need to block the sim i am using and send me a new one. I kept hanging up and they kept calling, asked me not to cancel the call. Indian guy put me through to his manager who tried his best american accent, but once I asked him about Gamma Telecom, he got flustered, defensive and eventually hung up the phone when I said I would call Three directly. They've just called me back, the first guy asked me for my email address, I said no because his friend hung up on me so he just said OK no problem, have a nice day. Dont listen to what they say, just block them off the bat. I only answered as they didnt show up as a scam or anything on my phone like usual
