Hi @Ell01034,

Welcome to the Community!

I'd recommend reaching out to your bank to let them know. They will likely send you a new card, so the details you've entered can't be use, but it's also worth keeping an eye on your bank account for any transactions you don't recognise.

I stupidly put my details in. What do you think will happen?

Hi @Cheyanne123,

Welcome to the Community!

It is likely that the scammers will now have your details, so we would recommend keeping an eye on yor bank account, so you can flag any transactions that you do not recognise. It is also worth speaking with your bank, so they are aware you may be a victim of fraud, and they will likely send you a new bank card.

Rach

Luckily I clocked onto it quickly and cancelled my card. I should be getting a new one within a few days thank god!

That's good news @Cheyanne123 

I'm glad you were able to identify it quickly and obtain a new card.

@KN90 : It's obviously a scam! The link in it is not even to EE (domain ee.co.uk).

There are many of these going the rounds. EE would never send you a msg asking you to click on a link in order to access your a/c.

If you entered any personal details you may have to a) check with your bank, b) change your bank card and/or c) change your EE a/c password

Report spam texts to your network provider by forwarding the text to 7726 (S.P.A.M. on your keypad).

If you think I helped please feel free to hit the "Thumbs Up" button below.

Hi @KN90 

Thanks for letting us know that you've received that correspondence.

Although it does look genuine, as @XRaySpeX mentioned, it's actually a scam.

You can find more information about the scam by heading to our EE Points scam web page.
