Help i clicked link and out my number in what do i do

HELP...i clicked the link on mums phone .luckily she dont bank online or anything will she be ok

@Voddyobie : It's immaterial whether she does online banking or not; she still has a bank a/c with a sort code & a/c no. Did you enter these at the link? If so, she'll need to contact her bank & maybe get issued a new debit card.

@Voddyobie : It's obviously a scam! The link in it is not even to EE (domain ee.co.uk).

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.

If you entered any personal details you may have to a) check with your bank, b) change your bank card and/or c) change your EE a/c password

I have been told that I have 12,700 reward points. I have looked at the rewards to redeem the points and there are massage chairs, Coffee making machines, Dishwashers etc. is there a catch as not seen this before. I only have 2 days before they expire

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