Scam "Three Promotions Team"

Jes — Wed, 08 Jan 2025 17:28:48 GMT

I keep receiving a number from a person pertaining to be from "Three Promotions Team"

01*********. They tried to convince me they were from three by sending me a code that i will need to put into my new phone when it gets delivered. I did receive a test from an automated text messaging service called 'From Three'. This confused me as this is the same number that i use to receive a one time code to get into the app sometimes too so i am unsure how they have hacked this to make it look legitimate?

The normal automated text messaging service when on a phone call from three is called "Three UK".

I rang three to check if anyone from Three had called me they said no so i have blocked it but i receive multiple calls a day now and Three said they cannot block it their end which is ridiculous so i keep receiving a blocked message.

Just so people are aware. They will ask you all about your card details where you live etc. This is a scam.

Hey @Pridiv72,

Thanks for reaching out to make us aware of this. We've removed that email address just to keep everybody safe here, but that does not appear to be an email address affiliated with Three.

Please do not share any personal info and we'd recommend not responding at all. You can find our contact options over on the Three website.

Thanks,
Michael
