Female caller claimed to be from Vodafone. She wanted to talk through my account. She started by telling me I did not have any security setup on my account. I told she was wrong and she asked me for my password. I told her to send me an email which she has. The email address does not match a Vodafone email address. I am not calling back.

This is not a genuine Vodafone number - you can check it on their own website FAQs - Is it Vodafone calling me? … unsurprisingly, when this number is entered for checking on their website, the response is that it is not one of their numbers. Blocked to prevent any more of these nuisance calls from this number.
Caller claimed to be from Vodafone offering to go through my account, I questioned it to be a scam call! She then sent me a text with code for verification!!! This text landed in other texts which were from Vodafone so not sure how they managed this? Told me details about my account not sure if these were phishing but I didn't confirm anything and hung up.
