I got a message saying I've been rewarded ee points. I clicked on the link. Saying I could send points on a smart watch. Done that and had to enter my bank details. Done that but nothing was confirmed after. So is it legit or not ?

Hi @Ryanpm1983
This is not a message from EE, please contact your bank to let them know and change your passwords for all accounts that use the same log in details.
Please see our Online Security: Avoid and Prevent Scams | EE, for more details.
Leanne.
