Who called me.

Samwitwikki — Sun, 28 Mar 2021 20:35:25 GMT

Received a missed call from this number, 03452962834.

a quick google search doesn’t reveal anything. I have not called it back in case it is scammers.

Does anybody know who it is.

Hi @Samwitwikki

It's probably a spam call, so as you don't recognise it, don't call it back, and just ignore it.

If it's important, they'll call back or leave a message. If you do answer it next time, be aware it's likely a scam if they ask you about your recent car accident, for example.

I find this worrying as to where and how they have obtained my information. It has only recently been given to us for emergency use (as my wife is pregnant) and has only been given to close family

members as well as requesting it being ex-directory too.

Has EE had a breach of security or sold on personal information?

If any are true we have not been contacted to authorise this or been told of the data breach either!

There has been no breach, Scammers just use auto-diallers to call random nos. in a range. Just ignore them & hang up. We all get them. Boris has just ordered Ofcom & the telecom cos. to clean their act up.
