An SMS arrived thanking me for using Telkom WhatsApp support and asking me to fill out a survey about the experience. I've never used their WhatsApp chat nor am I a Telkom customer. Is this number genuine? The URL shown is telkom.eyerys.co.za – could it be a scam site?

Expert Opinion
A suspicious SMS arrives from an unfamiliar number, claiming to be a post-service survey from Telkom's WhatsApp support, complete with a dodgy link to telkom.eyerys.co.za. You've never engaged with them, so this smells like a classic phishing scam designed to harvest personal data or install malware. Legitimate companies like Telkom use official domains ending in .co.za, not weird variants like eyerys.co.za—quick search confirms that's not theirs. Don't click the link or reply; block the number and report it to your carrier. If curious, contact Telkom directly via their verified channels to confirm. Stay vigilant against these sneaky tactics that prey on trust.
