Told me they are from Tesco mobile my network provider. I responded saying I wasn’t with Tescos, your lying and hung up
Has phoned twice now, Indian woman, claims to be from EE and that my 4G SIM card is about to be switched off and needs to be a 5G. After patiently listening to her script I politely point out I don’t believe her and this is a scam, cue background conversation in her native language then hangs up. Bless her
