Message scam about rewards points from EE

[Margih62]

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?

Yes, it nearly got me. 😖

Received this morning 26.12.2023 from 07495 761280;



As others have already advised, I simply forwarded the message to: 7726.
Everything about that message screams SCAM!

It should be obvious that eeuk.buzz is not EE's domain. EE's domains would always end in ee.co.uk/ .

I received a similar text today , saying I'm a high value customer and being gifted points but would expire in 3 days. EE would normally text on shortcode numbers or just EE where the number should be, any text from mobile numbers claiming to be EE are usually scam, always check before opening any links.
