Hi, my mobile number has just been stolen!
Believe email accessed and scammers called my mobile phone provider Lebara to transfer number. I did get three PAC code texts in a minute but did not reply. Later, my phone had no service.
Callback, after live chat, Lebara offered to send replacement SIM.
Within the hour of PAC texts my number was being used by scammers.
New SIM did not work. Called Lebara who said that my number had been ported out to 02. Scammers had called for PAC code, probably said not get code so give it different way. ! Lebara passed case to retentions - 48/72hrs. Said they had a recording.
02 shop said number gone onto a PAYG and could do nothing.
Sim Swap - seems to be common !
