I received a call today from claiming to be Sky is this genuine, I cannot post the number due to restrictions on this message service

Probably not genuine but without any other info we can't tell.

Not sure if this relates to the number involved? See this link as per Skys own website

https://www.sky.com/help/articles/received-call-from-08007613372

If this was the number, it can still be spoofed so if you're unsure call Sky back on the normal number.

Chances are it's a scam. If you still have the number then check it with the whocalledme website.

Hi @twilight+princess   If a scammer has spoofed a genuine number, then who called me is useless.

[twilight+princess]

@MightyQuinn I use it to determine if others have received a similar call.

I have just received the exact same call, possible Asian accent saying they are calling from Sky....I said  I don't have Sky...she then said. Who is your provider...Virgin..blah blah...I hung up.

@Sambubbles71 no doubt you'll now receive the same call but claiming to be from Virginmedia. 🙂
