Ugly music blaring from a persistent caller at dawn? That's not a wake-up call anyone signed up for—it's a classic sign of spam tactics designed to annoy and invade. These repeating calls from similar numbers suggest automated harassment, possibly testing for active lines or pushing unsolicited ads. Blocking helps short-term, but variants slip through because spammers use tech to spoof numbers. Register your number on South Africa's Do Not Call registry via the Direct Marketing Association to cut down on legal telemarketing. For true peace, enable call screening on your phone or use apps that filter unknowns. If it escalates to threats, report to your telco and authorities—persistence like this borders on digital nuisance.
Every morning around the same time, a number beginning with 021003 calls. I block it, but the next day a different 021003 variant rings again—today it was +27 21 003 4928. When I once answered, only unpleasant music played, so I hung up and blocked it again.
