Scam offering 30%

Today I received a call  from 020 4592 7771 offering 30% discount.

They suggested that the discount was available to my mobile which was an old mobile number.

I asked them who they were again and they said EE. I told them I didn't have a mobile with the number they suggested and they then stopped the call.

Hi @alexparaglider,

Welcome to the EE Community. 🙂

You did the right thing in challenging the caller. That wasn't a genuine call from EE.

You can report the call by texting CALL followed by the number to 7726.

Hi,

I've just had a call from 02045922399 offering me 30% off my plan, plus a free "gift hamper" due to my "loyalty to EE".  

The worrying thing is that they had all my information.  My home address, my phone, the additional number on my account, and the plan I was including the details of my recent upgrade.  This concerns me hugely!  Has there been a data breach?  I have changed my password on my EE account and added two-step verification.  What other steps can I take to ensure my data security?

Thanks.

Same. They knew my bill amount too. Very worrying.
