Offering rewards I had 3 days to spend my 12,000 points seems very suspicious

It's a scam! There are many of these going the rounds. EE would never send you a msg asking you to click on a link in order to access your a/c.

Does it have a link in it that it tells you to click? Don't go there but what was the link?

Ours came from 693522 with 19 recipients on the supposed chat telling us we had over 2,000 points. Sadly 2 people in this group of what were sequential numbers have fallen for this. We've tried reporting this from the number given after googling this. Sad that people are falling for this when it didn't even come in the same set up as an official RE message even worse that we can access 19 people's private numbers as well doesn't that breach GDPR?

I received something very similar this morning (18th January 2026) and being suspicious, I Googled it and looked at the posts on the EE community page. I reported it as spam and sent it on its way to EE.
