My husband was contacted by this number regarding new phones. They offered him a set of ear pods or Apple Watch. He is now on the phone to the bank to see if/what they have taken. BEWARE

Received a call from someone claiming to be from 3. He gave his name as Steve Simon employee ID number 6079, and offered me 50% of my bill for 12 months. Offered a new phone which I refused, a free gift of a watch or ear pods, asked for a Security Code, I gave mothers maiden name. He then asked for my bank details so he could set up a new direct debit for the new contract, they took my details and gave me 01617646866 and it's a Chinese take away shop in Manchester. I called my bank and reported my card stolen.

Received a call from someone claiming to be from 3. He gave his name as Lucas Scott, employee ID number 6009, and offered me 50% of my bill for 12 months. Offered a new phone which I refused, a free gift of a watch or ear pods, asked for a Security Code, I gave mothers maiden name. He then asked for my bank details so he could set up a new direct debit for the new contract, after listening to all his garbage, I hung up…..15 minutes later they rang back with a number that came up on my phone as 3, a different person with employee number 6006, asking for my bank details to conclude my offer. Hung up again…..
