I just checked my phone and saw scam texts sent from my number. I didn't send them myself.

Hello @Mel Bell,

Could be that someone is ‘spoofing’ your number when sending these SPAM texts.

You can report the SPAM texts to iD, but you should probably let iD know that you believe someone is using your mobile number in this way.

I recommend you contact iD, using their Live Chat service from following page:

https://www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat

You might need your customer service PIN, and also tell the chat bot “talk to a person”. Customer service personnel answer from 9am to 6pm at weekends and on bank holidays.

Good luck!

Why iD Mobile?
