VM phishing email but VM aren't interested
I get this email spam email regularly and I forward on to the phishing email address at VirginMedia, and this is their standard response: Thanks for checking in with us. We’re only able to confirm if emails sent from Virgin Media O2 are genuine. As the email you received appears to come from someone else, you’ll need to contact that company using their official contact details to check if it’s real. Treat the email with caution – don’t click on any links or share personal details until you’ve confirmed it’s genuine. Need more help? Get in touch with our team here. Take care, The Virgin Media O2 team Does VM not do anything about scammers pretending to be VM any more? Or is this just another indication that VM is washing its hands of its email service altogether and you just can't be bothered to do anything about it?

Thank you The contact number for this was 0861803974.phone calls from (VM apparently) probably scams?
OK, so, had 3 phone calls today so far, from this number, and a foreign female stating 'she was calling from Virgin Media with regards to my account, and needed to verfiy my account' Now she didn't ask for anyone by name, or give any details about the account. Initially I was very wary of her, and refused to continue the conversation, and hung up. She called again a few moments later, and repeated the same dialogue, but I again hung up without answering this time. Persistant, she then called again 5 minutes later, and tried again. Again I didn't engage with her, and hung up. Obviously a scam, as VM don't call customers!! Number was a mobile, : 0794637xxxx [Mod - number edited in case innocent number being spoofed]Is this text legitimate?
Hi all, sorry for what I know is a repeat question, but I wasn't able to find the actual answer when this had been posted before! I'm trying to set up Virgin broadband in a house I'll be moving into next month, and had to leave my details because my address didn't appear on the dropdown. Today I received a text that says "Hello, You recently made an online application for Virgin Media services. To complete your order please give me a call. tony on (number)" It looks super sketchy, but since I don't seem to have any hope in speaking to a real person on the phone, I wanted to see if it was legit. Thank you in advance!Old ntlworld email hacked
Hello there, My old email address with the old @ntlworld.com domain has been hacked, and the hackers have now change the password. They are also sending emails to contacts impersonating me. I can see in this forum that other people have experienced the same issue. Could you please help me to completely shut down the mailbox? Thank you.
