"Caller claimed to be EE . Tried starting "order process" to upgrade my SIM to "take 5G". Declined to email me. AI says "EE has confirmed it does not do this.This is a scam. EE's 4G service is still active, current 4G SIM cards already work with 5G, and "EE don't have a programme in place to proactively contact customers to replace SIM cards." Trading Standards issued a warning in August 2026 about criminals posing as network operators and exploiting interest in 5G upgrades. The typical script matches what happened to you almost word for word: a cold call claiming your SIM is "outdated" or can't handle 5G and must be replaced (usually "free of charge"), followed by an attempt to "start the order." Their goal is a SIM swap (account takeover).They "start the order," generate a genuine one-time passcode (OTP) text to your phone from EE; ask you to give it and your email address. If you do, your phone number goes on their SIM card. They can then access your Bank Accounts!"
