Was it really Three?

[HELENA]

I have just had a telephone call claiming to be from Three offering a 45% discount on my bill no strings attached.After being asked to spell my email address 3 times I felt something wasn't quite right,declined the offer and hung up.The telephone number was a Liverpool one.Has anyone else had a call like this and if so was it really Three.

It was a Liverpool number which I rang and it was a car showroom.The staff member I spoke to said they get calls like mine asking if they are Three constantly.

Scam then. Be careful and don’t take anything on face value.

This is more than likely a scam. Three do their marketing via text with a hyperlink or email and as MZone has said,Three’s numbers always start with 0333. Of course it could be a third party affiliate company selling Three plans quite legitimately but remember the old adage if it seems too good too be true etc etc.

3 direct usually call from an 03 number so either a scammer or a 3rd party.
