Possible scam call

I had a call from 01980 682089 today. They offered to cut my EE bill in half for 12 months and send me a free pair of Samsung earbuds. I was mildly suspicious but I couldn't see what they were hoping to gain from the info they were asking for (full name, email, postal address). Then they wanted me to tell them a pin code they were sending me and I became uncomfortable and was reminded of a time my fb was hacked in a similar way. Does anyone recognise the phone number? This is the second time they have called and tried this, the first time I was busy and shut them down straight away but this time I was curious.

Hello @Tc89 ,

Welcome to the community,

That is definitely a scam call, so long as you have not given any personal information, you should be fine, otherwise I would advise you to change your passwords.
