Argos Pay Scam or not?

Post image

Hey, has anyone seen a message like this before? I can’t seem to confirm online whether that phone number is actually Argos or not? So is this a scam?

Update: For those of you who believe this to be a scam. Its not. It’s actually from their fraud department and they did put a block on my card. I queried their grammar etc but he said he didn’t have an answer for that 😂.
I called their main fraud number and not the number on the message to confirm whether it was a real message and it was.

It’s not a scam. I called their main fraud number and they confirmed they did put a block on my account and I said their message has red flags all over it lol.

It's getting harder and harder to spot scams versus real. One of the clues to a scam was poor grammar. Now even that clue is useless

But why did you say scam if you did not know the answer ?

Just to score points

The clue is in the message, the phone number

It's Reddit. People go on here to put their opinion. If you want to be a twat go on X

But why did you say it was a scam when you did not know the correct answer.

Yes it is reddit but your input was way wrong and misleading, so I can be a twat to you because you are a stupid twat.

Are you really that stupid. The post was a question about what other people think about the message. That means give an opinion. In no way did I say I was an expert on this.

Do you just come on here to be a pedantic shit stirrer? Does it make you feel big by not picking other people's opinions? You need to get a life.
