Expert Opinion

A recent sweep of user comments highlights a flood of unwanted calls from a source linked to Telkom deals. Callers rarely speak, often hang up, and keep ringing even after blocks, suggesting automated dialing or a quota‑driven script. Victims report multiple daily rings, silent connections, and misleading branding that masks a classic telemarketing scam. To protect yourself, enable carrier‑level blocking, use third‑party spam filters, and consider registering with the national Do‑Not‑Call registry. If calls persist, report the number to the communications regulator and consider changing your contact preferences with the actual service provider. Staying proactive can curb the annoyance. Additionally, keep your phone's software up to date to benefit from built‑in spam detection.

Frequent rings from ‘Casper the annoying ghost’, four times this week. What’s the point of the POPI Act?!

27814115850 Unknown

For months this line has been dialing me almost every weekday, up to five times daily – super irritating. I discovered it’s tied to Telkom, so I blocked it in January to avoid telemarketing. I later unblocked it, expecting another call, and grew fed up with the nonstop ringing. When I finally answered, a woman seemed on the line, but she pretended she couldn’t hear me and hung up, though I caught a faint mumble in the background. Seriously annoying, dude.
