A text message read “Hi Mum, very upset, text me back on +447935084366” without any sender ID. Clearly one of those phishing scams.

专家点评
Scammers frequently dispatch spoofed texts posing as distressed family members to extract quick replies or personal details. This message, claiming an upset 'Mum' without context, screams phishing scam—a classic ploy to hook you into contacting a dodgy number. Don't respond; it could lead to data theft or financial loss. Block the sender, report to your network provider, and alert Action Fraud if needed. Forward suspicious texts to 7726 for free spam flagging. Stay vigilant: verify family claims through known channels first, never via unknown numbers. Such tactics prey on emotions, but a simple pause saves hassle.
