Hi is anyone else getting messages supposed to be from EE  saying they've got thousands of rewards points that's going to be  lost in 2 days if they dont  click on the link to spend them?

@les2391 : You never checked out the link they wanted you to click on. It was obviously not EE's domain ee.co.uk.

Did you enter any personal details like your bank account, or mobile number if you have please contact your bank straight away they will need to cancel your card and please forward the message to EE on 7726 spam

No... I was reading it snd about to and then said wait... let me see what
the points will give me and I was like hahaha no no no

I got a message saying I had enough points for some headphones how do I check when they'll arrive. 

@beckiboo1 : You won't be getting it. Instead some scammers will be depleting your bank a/c unless you get on to your bank ASAP.

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 update your a/c.
