Scammer posing as Sky. I had some time to kill so wasted several minutes of theirs until they asked me for my email address, which of course the should already know.

Supposedly from Vodafone, saying my number will be blocked due to bad internet connection (not with vodafone for internet) received similar last week from a mobile no.

Called from 3 phone network telling me my number would be disconnected and they needed to confirm my postal address to accept my new SIM card. When questioned they then proceeded to tell me they were calling from O2. Push back hard and they will crack and hang up. Ask questions. Make them uncomfortable. They won’t know how to handle it.
