EE issues urgent text warning to all UK iPhone and Android users, don't ignore it

^{Published on 2024-12-01 05:02:20 - Tim Hastings, N@N}

EE says it's trying to take some of the sting out of the scammer's tails by blocking millions of texts each month before they reach consumers. However, that doesn't mean some don't slip through the net. That's why the UK provider has just issued some new advice on how to stay safe this Christmas.

The article from Express.co.uk discusses an urgent warning issued by EE, a major UK mobile network provider, to its customers regarding a surge in scam text messages. EE has advised its users to be vigilant against texts that appear to come from the company but are actually fraudulent attempts to steal personal information or money. These scam texts often mimic legitimate communications, such as alerts about account issues or offers for fake rewards. EE has emphasized that they will never ask customers to click on links to update personal details or make payments via text. The company recommends that customers report any suspicious texts by forwarding them to 7726, a number designated for reporting spam, and to always verify the authenticity of any communication purporting to be from EE through official channels.
