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?

Hi @CjSs1 

Could you send a text message to 7726 please? The message just needs to say the number that called you so that it can be investigated, the message is free.

Thanks

Chris

Hi there

I recieved a text from a number that looks a bit dodgy.

EE points program reminds you:

Since you are a high-quality user of our company, we will give you some points as a gift. The points will expire in three working days. Please click on the link below to use your points to redeem prizes in time!

(Click the link now or copy and open in Google.)

EE wishes you a good trip!

I tested the link on another device I don't use and it lead to a convincing page but the URL was off. <link removed> it did have a few grammar issues too not to mention I've never heard of a pints system.

Just thought I'd post to make people aware of this.

I had one of these and, like a prat, tried the link, do you think my phone was exposed? Anything I can do about it? And, yes, how do you report it to EE?
