I accidentally gave a scammer my number thinking it was my director. I've since blocked the number but do I need to change my number or are any other details in danger because of this?

It was just my number that was compromised. I have reported the scammer. Is there anything else I need to do?

Sorry to hear you’ve been scammed @Kayleigh George. 

Have you reported the scam?

Whether any other details are in danger depends on what other information, if any, you gave to the scammer.
