Tried to call and tell me they needed to send me a new EE sim. Sent a text claiming to be from EE and asked me for the PIN to access my account. Then asked me to open my EE app as it would need ‘resetting’ due to the 5G upgrade. When I questioned him asking why he can’t just send me the SIM of he has my info he put the phone down. Called EE after this and they confirmed it’s fraudulent.
