Scam callers fooled me into giving away personal details by pretending to be my mobile phone company and they sent me an email with a link that I clicked on. They want to steal your identity to use your information for expensive phone contracts and other bad things. Still getting bothered by lots of calls.
When I call back, it drops straight away.
