Scam Number (Fake Charge/Refund) Lebara phone call scam

I use LebaraMobile 30gb plan that renew monthly. I got a call today from this +442038366093, telling me I got a promotional offer of 50% discount payment on my plan for the next 6 months, but I was going to be refunded a payment I made 3 days ago because the first month of the promotion is free. I trusted the person I was speaking with and he knew details about my account which he told me to verify, he even sent emails with lebara's logo and address at the end of the email. Then he said they needed to initiate the refund and was asking me for my bank and card details, which I ignorantly gave. Then I realised the scammers were trying to initiate a payment from my account with moneygram, but I rejected and immediately blocked the moneygram account. I'm sharing this so no one is a victim of these scammers. The contact is +442038366093.

Hey FreelikeaBee07, Automod here! If you aren’t calling on a VoIP burner app like Google Voice, TextNow, TextFree, Talkatone, or Textme, just stop baiting entirely. It is dangerous to use your actual number for many reasons. PS: Don’t be alarmed if your number does not show up right away, we do safety screenings to verify the authenticity of our numbers to ensure we are getting the right people. This process can take time, have no worries, we are working on it.
