I find it very interesting that I get a call today from what the caller said was Telus Loyalty program. He told me that because I was a long term customer, paid all my bills on time that Telus would like to offer me a free phone. (iphone or Samsung) and was quite pushy asking my which I prefer. I said the offer was too good to be true and that I would check it out and call him back. He hung up immediately. The number he was calling from was 250-262-9696. What I find particularly disturbing is that I was on the phone with the loyalty department for two hours yesterday. Is there a leak or scam within the Telus support?

Hello. There's no leak. For years, scammers have used multiple ways to try to swindle people into giving their personal/account info over the phone.
