This is definitely a scam. A woman claiming to be from Vodafone called me, offering a 40% discount for the next 12 months while assuring me that my contract terms would remain unchanged. However, she then requested my 4-digit PIN to confirm access to my account, which raised immediate red flags.

My Samsung device marked this caller as a spam number. I let the phone ring without answering, and they left no message, so I have chosen to block the number.

I answered the call and experienced a delay before connecting. A person with a heavy Indian accent, who identified himself as "Damien" from Vodafone's billing department, claimed he could save me 40% on my bills if I provided him with my 4-digit account PIN. This raised my suspicions regarding the legitimacy of the call.
