Thanks @Whiro.

You did upload it successfully but it was waiting to be approved,which I did. But you've now removed it. Post it again but wait for it to appear.

@Whiro : Oh, yes, I remember now. I didn't approve it as it had your email addy in it.

[XRaySpeX]

@Whiro : Can you see the URL beneath that link? Don't go there but what is it?

[Whiro]

@XRaySpeX  - Yes, I realised it quite late. But now it's finally fine and uploaded and you can see the scam. I almost believed this e-mail...  😓

Hi @Whiro,

If you receive spam emails, you should mark them as spam in your inbox. This will alert your email provider and will usually block the sender from contacting you in future.

If you receive a message claiming to be from EE and you're not 100 % sure it's genuine, please send it to phishing@ee.co.uk for email or 7726 for texts. 

Alex 🙂
