It seems like the number +27820072202 is being used to send out phishing messages. Users report receiving texts claiming to be from Home Affairs, stating that their ID application was successful and urging them to click on a link. However, many of these users have had their IDs for years, making the message suspicious. The caller is likely a scammer trying to gather personal information or install malware. If you receive such a call or message, do not click on any links or provide personal details. Instead, verify the information directly with Home Affairs through their official channels. Stay vigilant and cautious, especially with unsolicited messages.
Got a text from 0820072202 claiming to be Home Affairs saying my ID application succeeded and urging me to click a link – obviously not Home Affairs since I already have my ID, haha.
