Received a call from someone claiming to be from O2, my supposed network provider. The thing is, I've never been a customer of theirs at all!

I've been getting loads of calls and texts from different numbers in places like Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, and Birmingham trying to sell me cheaper tariffs. They even send what looks like a code from O2. I rang up O2 and they told me to update my password on the O2 app just to be safe. From what others have shared, it seems pretty clear this is just another dodgy scam going around. Watch out!

Some bloke said he was from O2 and wanted me to give him access to my online account. I reckon it was a scam so he could probably order some pricey phones or something. Very dodgy!

Spam call - my phone just blocked it automatically!

Got a missed call earlier and shortly after that, I got a text supposedly from O2 saying I asked for a one time code. Problem is, I never requested anything like that. Feels like a dodgy O2 scam to me.

Cease your incessant ringing, you bunch of nuisances!

I received a call from this person who seemed solely focused on getting my account details. They insisted they could slash my O2 bill by a staggering 40% or something along those lines. Quite suspicious, to say the least!

WATCH OUT: They go ahead and set up a contract in your name with O2, but send you a bogus contract document. After that, they ask you to send the phone back using a FAKE BARCODE, which actually sends the phone straight to them. If you check with O2, they’ll confirm there’s a contract under your name, but will tell you that barcode isn’t valid for O2 returns. So basically, you end up losing your phone, which can cost around £1640.

+44 161 524 7005 rang me nonstop yesterday, but I ignored it cause I didn't know who it was. Then today, two different unknown mobile numbers messaged me pretending to be from O2: +44 7832 801678 and +44 7925 755151 Both texts claimed I needed to "update my agreement to stop my account from being temporarily suspended". Total scam and sketchy. I blocked all three numbers straight away and forwarded the suspicious messages to O2's fraud team at 7726 to make sure they're aware. Definitely dodgy so watch out!

Got a call from a 0161 number and they just cut off straight away. Been getting loads of these every day recently and checked here, loads are marked as spam. Going to block this one as well.

Someone called me saying they could lower my O2 charges, but I told them I don't even have O2 since they're not my network. They just abruptly ended the call after that.

Got a call from what sounded like a call centre, after a bit a bloke with a strong Asian accent said he was ringing from Vodafone with some special deals for me. I just ended the call straight away. No chance I’m with Vodafone, not in a million years lol.

Received a dodgy phone call from someone purporting to represent 3. Definitely not legit!

She went by the name Rose, but honestly, it sounded more like a Jennifer to me. This individual kept ringing me up, claiming to represent O2, all the while attempting to pull a fast one on me. Quite dodgy if you ask me!

I've been inundated with calls from this number, so I've gone ahead and blocked it. I wouldn't recommend picking up if they ring you either!

Received a call claiming to be from EE, and they tried to persuade me that it was regarding an upgrade since I was previously a customer. However, since I’ve moved on from EE, I’d recommend steering clear of such calls. They seemed a bit dodgy!

Received a call from someone claiming to be with Currys, discussing mobile phones. She inquired about what make and model I own, but I declined to share that information. Shortly after, she hung up.
