Fake call - Automated message from her majesty’s revenue and customs threatening legal action asking you to press 1 to speak to someone, then asking for payment details - Total scam

Some nonsense about getting a new SIM card within 48 hours, no idea what he was talking about before I told him to do one and hung up.

called me ma'am after every sentence despite me clearly sounding like a guy, claimed they would give me a 40% discount on my O2 bill (already knew it was a scam), then wanted my account login details, i said no thank you, the person got annoyed telling me I wanted the discount, said no thank you again, and just went in circles of him offering me better deals while saying no thanks. Eventually he got to mad and hung up
