Text claiming to be EE

[Laura_pxox]

My daughter received a text this morning from 07396702726 claiming to be EE and advising the bill had not been paid ‘click this link to update payment details’. It appeared to be an ee.co.uk web address but instead of clicking the link I checked the app and it said the bill for both her phone and mine had been paid so I deleted the text off her phone assuming it’s spam. 

Is anyone able to confirm if 07396702726 is legit or scam please?

Hi @Chinny2112 

Thank you for taking the time to feed back the message that you received to our phishing team.

Now you've sent the message, I'd recommend deleting it from your phone.

If you reply STOP to these texts, they know that the phone is active and may forward your number to another marketing company for them to contact you regarding another service.
