SIM card upgrade calls

"A man named Mark said he was calling from O2 (but I'm not with them). He told me that because the networks are joining together, my sim will stop working in two days. When I told him I didn't belive him, he told me to f* off. I don't mind scam calls, but they weren't this rude twenty years ago."

"Said they were from EE and sent a new simple card out."

"Pretending to be O2 about a sim swap. I hung up the phone right away and blocked the number."

"Said they were from my sim provider and my sim would stop working in 48 hours and a new sim would be sent out. Wanted to put me through to her manager. I gave her no info and hung up."

"Said it was very important and problems with my sim card getting closed"

"Offered a fake deal upgrade for new sim as apparently people are not happy with O2 and Virgin merger….. Claimed to be from my network"

"Said they were EE and told me my SIM card has to be changed."

"Said they were from O2 Network and my sim card would stop working in 5 days."

"Said they were calling about a sim card that's 6 months old and needing to send a new one for free, but I had to give my bank details."

"I picked up, a lady with a strong Indian accent (first red flag) started by saying "Hello, we're calling about your sim card". I asked what network I use, and also what my name was, but she didn't know either. Scam."

"scam saying my sim will be blocked in 2 days"

"They said they're calling from O2 and 3g is being turned off. They wanted to update my sim and said to send a new one they need to check my details. I no longer use O2 on my mobile, and I have an E-sim."

"sim card"

"Said they were from Three and that my sim would be deactivated in the next 24 hours and they needed to take some details. Told them I didn’t believe them and hung up."

"Called saying they were BT working for EE to see if I could get a better deal. Then they wanted me to text numbers to check my balance and stuff. Just felt strange."

"Got a call saying DPD were delivering a replacement SIM card"

"Pretended to be O2 Virgin Mobile wanting me to verify my email and saying they would send me a new chip for my phone since all O2 customers need to deactivate old chips and register new ones. 🙄 He got really angry when I said I couldn’t open the email link because I was at work. 😡"

"The first caller said he was from EE. They were going to send a replacement SIM because mine would be switched off. They wanted my email to check I owned the account. I told him it was a work phone and I wasn't the account owner. The second caller (same number) asked who my provider was. Seemed like there was some confusion in India!"

"Said they were from my phone provider saying that my SIM card needed to be updated, but they didn't know my name and asked for my address. I told them I would get a SIM in store if it was necessary. No notifications from the provider online or through text."

"Said they were from Vodafone and 3G, telling me that my SIM card would be blocked in 2 days. Clearly a fraud."

"Said they were O2 about my contract. The info was wrong so it was probably a scam"

"Said they were from Sky Mobile, wanting to send out new SIM cards and saying that mine were faulty."

"Scam about SIM swap, calling themselves EE"

"SIM swap scam, they said it was EE"
