Of course that's a scam: such a takeover would be a huge change in the UK broadband market.  Any business merger on that scale would be all over the news and take months (if not years) to happen.

 

Since late 2018, Sky Group has been an overseas division of the US Comcast Corporation who paid 39 billion dollars for the acquisition: this means Sky itself is no longer available for takeover by anyone as it doesn't have publicly traded shares.
