Phishing Call

Woken by a call on my mobile this morning at 6.30 am from a Portuguese mobile number by a person speaking english advising me my "National Identity Card" had been compromised and associated with money-laundering operation so the police have issued a warrant for my arrest. I hung up before the person continued but just dropping a general warning here about such activity.
Also reported the number on Spamcalls.net
