Here's a weird new trick: a bogus text pretending to be from John Lewis with a one‑time passcode for a pharmacy purchase I never made, plus a reply code if I didn’t request it. I didn’t use it, but I’m not sure what the crook would do with my reply, you know.

Reports highlight a fresh phishing tactic mimicking John Lewis texts, where a fake one-time passcode appears for a non-existent pharmacy purchase, complete with a reply code to dispute it. This setup likely aims to elicit responses confirming active numbers or to phish for personal details if engaged. Scammers exploit trust in reputable brands to lower defences. Block the sender immediately and avoid any interaction—replying could validate your number for further spam. Report to your network provider and Action Fraud to curb wider spread. Stay vigilant with unsolicited messages; verify directly via official channels instead.
