Scam call 40% discount offered

[Bev-Rob]

Just had a call advising I was selected from valued customers to receive 40% off my monthly bill. The number was private which raised immediate suspicion and when I needed to confirm details, which I questioned and didn't answer she got very flustered. Told them I didn't believe a word of it and hung up 😡

Had the same.

Ask me to find the email address, I asked to share my name, first, They said they can’t share any personal information due to security. 
It was clear. It was an attempt to con.

I hung up, locked up online and saw this thread.

I have reported the number and sharing my experience with others to be wary.

Stay safe.
