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?

Sorry mate your theory is wrong I am not EE and never have been, its an
opportunist hoping for a bite.....there is no conspiracy involved.

@Sasha36 : It's a scam! 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 EE is aware of this activity, and all this tech and security at their disposal, then why haven't they done anything to stop it. furthermore, why is EE giving the details of their customers to a third party. What happened to data protection.

i have had many of these messages and so have every member of my family who are included in my contract. this can only mean that EE has sold our data and information to a third party. is it not enough you are charging such high fees, then raising the tarifs and charges and then you make more money from selling our personal information?

to add insult to injury you advice us to report it to a third party . why can@t EE do what is morally right and stop selling their customers information to scrupulous third parties. total scam initiated and instigated by EE.

As far as I am aware EE don't pass on or sell personal information to 3rd
parties but as I do not work for EE I can't be 100% sure of that.

Absolute vermin they are and what's so frustrating is if they do get caught
they get a fine or a few month's holiday behind bars, no wonder they don't
give a **bleep**e. Take care friend 👍
