The first thing to do is ensure all your passwords are changed.

I would also contact your bank if you added any payment details.

Also forward the text to 7726 which will help o2 and Royal Mail deal with these scammers.

Also keep an eye on your credit report to see if anyone tries to take out any accounts in your name.

Also look at reporting on actionfraud.police.uk

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
