Hi I got this text from a UK number, wasn't sure about it, I did click the link and added my number then I realised it looked dodgy 

How do I forward the info to security?  Thanks

Hi @Pjthewelder 

Are you able to copy the text of the message and using the normal text message app send this to 7726?

Yes I got the message as well almost fell for it    nearly ordered ear pods.  Said I had something like 5340. Points.   Spend them now they run out in 2 days.   Only for the fact I had to go on my ee app to pay my bill and didn't see anything about points may me think mmmmmm.  And seeing you had one as well.    Glad I didn't now
