Imagine your phone lighting up with another call from 077‑099‑xxxx, each time promising an 'important announcement' that never materialises. These repeated, unsolicited contacts fit the pattern of a scam harassment campaign, often aimed at harvesting personal data. The safest move is to let the call go to voicemail, avoid sharing any personal information, and block the number through your handset or a third‑party app. Report the nuisance to ICASA and, if you suspect a POPI breach, lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator. Enrol in the national Do Not Call list and regularly review your call‑blocking settings for extra peace of mind.

The issuer of this number range should prohibit the company/user—they violate South Africa’s POPI Act with relentless, purposeless harassment from 077‑099‑xxxx.
Looks like the same caller is using the prefix 077 099 and just swapping the last four digits, all that spam – man.
