Tried calling me 3 times luckily I don’t answer numbers I don’t know and search and it says a scam so glad I didn’t answer
Called 14th August about sim They hacked my account and ordered expensive items then attempts to arrange return presumably to themselves leaving me to pay
they say they are from Sky - esim details. Scary as i had my mobile hacked this week - so have new esim.
They rang yesterday and today. I rang back. First a lady answered saying my SiM card was being replaced by Sky. I said OK but you can just send me this or use the app. Why are you calling me. She then passed it onto a man. He asked for my email to confirm my account. I said no, I do not think you are authentic. And hung up. Thought I'd better check the number for charges etc.
Rang twice as hung up on him first time. Saying problem with my sim i asked who my provider was he said sky i am not with sky told him to go away and hung up
Same as everyone else, pretending to be sky, talking about blocking my sim, started asking to confirm my details, didn’t confirm anything just hung up
Called me today.
Scam pretending to be sky saying my SIM card is getting blocked and to stay on the line for 5 seconds I put the phone down obvs it was an Indian person
Pretending to be Sky, asking for my details to send me a new SIM card because apparently mine will be blocked if they don't!
