This number called and I let it ring out so that I could call back. The call connected and a legitimate-sounding exchange message said "Thank you for calling O2, please hold for an advisor." When the call connected a male answered and said "Hello, who is this please....?" This was so not O2, the laughing and shouting in the background gave this away too. SCAM!

Claimed to be O2. New my name and which phone I had. Tried offering me a "special discount" which is on my account, offering me a new tablet for £17. When I asked if I could see this on the app, he said he could send me a link to my email address. At this point I told him I wasn't interested and cut off the call.

They don't know it's legit. they called to sell me a tablet for £16? New my details. Read out terms and conditions. Asked go do a credit check. Gave details. Don't know if it's a scam or not. Because my credit is low they asked for a deposit of £225? And said I would get it back? That's when I became fishy.
