Good morning,
I believe the attached text, number it's a spam. But it looks real as the website given it looks like to be ee.
I checked this morning my bill and it all paid on the 12th so it is very suspicious. Also the text has been sent at 5:54 am.
Just want to alert people, and understand if anyone else had the same.

@Dercia Definitely spam. The 2 big clues are the link to login to your account and it’s from a mobile number not EE. Forward the text to 7726 ( SPAM ) to report it.

Thank you Chris,
I just done it. 👌

@Dercia : That website isn't EE!
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.
Report spam texts to your network provider by forwarding the text to 7726 (S.P.A.M. on your keypad).

Good morning,
Thank you very much for your reply.
I have reported as Chris has also advised me that.
I just mentioned about the website given as it has ee written which could be difficult for others to spotted. Some people, like me, just use the app therefore they will not know the website full address to spott that one is a spam. I hope that will make sense.
Regards,
Dercia

Thanks for joining us on Community @EEuser1234524
This message is not from EE.
Please forward the text message to 7726 (it spells SPAM) free of charge, so all mobile phone providers can investigate?
