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?

Hi, Yes, received today.  Whenever there is urgency about it then I smell a rat.  Do not click on the link, and if you do then don't provide details, just back out and block the number.  I'm not a qualified anti-scammer/hacker btw.

Scumbags ain't they, did you know if the government paid a good wage for these excellent scam the scammers experts they would catch these vermin and put them away behind bar's. This country has become a treasure chest for criminals to make fortune's from this vile criminal activity. 👍

I think those 5 first numbers look like 3 network 🤔

Done that first thing and then put it up on several websites including which and obviously reporting it to law enforcement locally where I live.👍thank you and stay safe
