Claimed to be 02, said something about SIM cards, said it was a “very important call”. Didn’t seem legitimate.

They're claiming to be 02 they send a security check to 02 on your behalf and then ask for the code 02 send, luckily the text they send also says that 02 will never ask for this code so I didn't. Not sure what the scam is but definitely a scam
