Lottery Scam

Unfortunately, some of our customers have been receiving unsolicited phone calls or texts telling them that they have won a lottery prize.

This is fraud.

The caller may aim to get you to ring a premium rate phone number where you will then be kept on the line for as long as possible, being charged a very high rate per minute. They may also ask you to pay a fee to release the money that they say you have won. Again, this is fraud. Once you have paid the fee, communication may end and you will ultimately not receive any money. They may also then call you again to ask for more money. The offenders may also give you a partial SIM card number – do not be tricked by this.

What to do if you receive this call

Please report any fraudulent calls or texts you receive by contacting our customer service team at the number 322 from your Lyca Mobile or you can also dial 069 1200 7322 from another phone. In alternative you can send an email to cs@lycamobile.de



Fraud prevention advice

Never give out your number (they may ask you to confirm your number – don’t)

Never give out any personal details (e.g. name, address, date of birth, bank details, family names etc.)

Ask them what number they dialled – they probably do not know

Ask them what time of day it is – where they are

Ask them which lottery they represent

Ask them how you entered the lottery

If they become abusive, threatening or use upsetting language, please feel free to end the call at any time .

Blocking calls

If you record the number that called you, you may be able to block future incoming calls depending on your handset.
