Scam Call - Be Aware

Just to make fellow Sky Mobile customers aware, there are calls being made from an 03330 number claiming to be from Sky Mobile.

 

Unlike most scam calls, this one sounds like it's actually from an English person called Simon, not some Indian call centre with a fake English name. 

 

As ever, it's the little details that gave away the fact it wasn't genuine such as the offer guaranteeing to knock 50% off the price of my data plan and give me unlimited calls and texts as a further reward (Something I already have as Mobile customer anyway) and not knowing if I was a business customer and asking for my bank details (I didn't give any of that information, I just played along to a point to get as much information as I could to allow me to warn others). 

 

So, be aware, if you get a call from Simon about Sky Mobile - hang up!

It's a well known scam on here, although the discount is usually 40%. Seems they're upping their game as people are catching on that they're scammers.
Thanks for the new information.
