    As I was having problems with the network, not able to make phone calls, two weeks ago. This person called today saying are from Three network and apologising about the issue. He said that would send a new SIM card to my home address to resolve the issue. Silly me I share my address, DOB, them he send an email about the reissue frim sim card. When he told he told me that I would get a watch I cut him  I found suspicious. He them try the whats app. I didn't pick and told him not contact me again via written message.

    Phone number was 07380763781 & 07723578475, email was [email protected]

      ElsaIna_3110882​ Yes, it sounds like a scam.

      If you think it is a case of attempted fraud, you can report it to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040

    ElsaIna_3110882​ Not a lot of information for us to go on.

    If you want help, it does pay to provide some information.

    Did they know who you were? Who did they say they were? Was the number one you have seen before - was it UK based? Did they try to con you out of money? Was it linked to banking?

    Do you see the problem????
