Hmmm...

I'm not sure how I feel about this. A clumsy, slightly creepy attempt at a chat-up, rebutted by a young woman who seems to be very able to take care of herself. Not really news? Maybe I'm wrong.

Of greater import, given this quotation from the article...

“If a customer’s phone number is used for reasons for which it was not originally taken, it could be a breach of the Data Protection Act,” a spokesperson said."

...is a hope that all the organisations and app writers who continuously slurp data from our phones will be attracting the attention of the "spokesperson".
