Scam visa call

Just received a call from someone to say that a payment through visa of £900 will be taken from my account.  The telephone number they used is, I checked with my bank and they said it's a scam.

@Haendel23  what’s it got todo with EE ? Can you please elaborate. 

To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.

Because the mobile used, sim was from EE.

Same thing has happened to me. I rang it back and in the scammers error he answered. 
mobile number: . When he realised, he hung up. Tried ringing back straight to EE mobile message. For you EE to sort.

I just had the exact same phone call, thing is I don’t have a Visa debit card, nor do I have £900, as much as I wish I did! 

I got another one last Sunday, but from a different phone number, turns out they are using real peoples numbers to try and make them look like Scammers

I've just had the same call. Number beginning with 07583 and ending in 177. 

Nothing to do with EE except the beginning part of the scam caller starts with an EE number
