Expert Opinion

Claiming to be from O2 and offering a 40% discount, callers typically ask for a verification code or personal details and then promise a reduced bill or a new handset. The tactic relies on the urgency of a text that appears to come from the genuine network. Never disclose a verification code sent by text, even if the caller sounds confident, and avoid sharing passwords or security answers. End the call, contact O2 directly via the official website or app, and consider changing any passwords that may have been reused elsewhere. Report the number to Action Fraud and add it to your phone’s block list to reduce future interruptions.

442033320842 Scam O2 (claimed)

The caller pretended to be from O2, sending two texts about a 40% discount. DO NOT SHARE THE VERIFICATION CODE IN THE SECOND TEXT. O2 confirmed it's a scam. Blocked the number after multiple calls. BEWARE - THIS IS A REAL SCAM! (The caller had a South Asian accent, but that's irrelevant; scams come in all forms!)
