Expert Opinion

What happens when a dodgy caller pretends to be from your mobile provider? These reports paint a picture of scammers impersonating companies like Sky Mobile or Virgin Media to push fake SIM card updates or contract tweaks, often knowing bits of your details to seem legit. It's a classic ploy to harvest more info or trick you into action. Hang up straight away if something feels off—especially on bank holidays when real firms aren't posting SIMs. Block the number, report to your provider and Action Fraud, and never share personal details. Keep an eye on your account for odd activity; vigilance nips these nuisances in the bud.
