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?
Solved! See the answer below or view the solution in context.

Welcome to the community.
If you forward the message to 7726 free of charge, it'll be investigated.

Hi, yes I received it today via a text message telling me I have 3 days to choose a prize before it expires. They want you to click on a prize and enter your address. I logged into EE to see if this is spam, which clearly it is as there's nothing legitimate on the official EE site about these points.

Thanks, @FireCandy
Could you please forward the message to 7726, so that the security team can look into it? The message is free of charge.

They're still at it. If you follow up, they ask for your credit card details for your nominal "1p" payment. Sort of gives it away.

Yes the url is dodgy as it's not from ee. The links go too ee from the Web page which looks authentic. Typeface of text is different to ee. I've reported it to 7726.

Definitely. Asking for 1p payment. Just put in your credit card details lol.
