ID mobile has leaked my personal data
I needed support from ID mobile to change my address but, the only way I could find to contact them was via the ID Mobile Community so I put a message on this site. I was contacted by someone from the community telling me to text my query to a number and they would be able to help me. I did that and that's when the scam started. A guy rang to say he could help. He took my details and said he would process the change of address. Then he rang back to say he was having a problem with my account and he needed to re-register me on their system with my new address. Then he rang again and said he needed to process a small charge to my account as security, which would be refunded within 48 hours. In order for him to assure me that they were genuine, he quoted my bank account number and sort code to me which I had given to ID Mobile. Because of that, I believed he was genuine. Later he rang and said he wanted to apologise for the inconvenience and wanted to send me a gift
