Comes as a mobile number strange as they said they were sky but I'm with sky mobile and TV so I no the number and I have scram protection on my mobile which told me straight away like this was a dangerous number so I decided to waste their time as their scamming upgrade me to things that sky do not do I managed to call to 40 minutes they hang up in the end I use my internet protection app to block this number it also will tell me if they keep trying to call and they do apparently three times a day for the last three weeks do not trust them block them immediately I hope this helps.
