Based on the numerous user reviews, the caller with the number +27876541002 appears to be a scammer, likely operating from a call center. The caller claims to represent various companies, including Capital Max, Tactical Online, and Romantic Flowers, but the primary goal seems to be to sell shares or promote investment opportunities, often with a promise of R5000 worth of shares.
The scammers are known to use high-pressure sales tactics, be rude and abusive when questioned, and make false claims, such as having a problem with the target's credit card or needing to verify FICA documents. They also seem to have a lot of information about the individuals they are targeting, including names, surnames, and in some cases, even the names of relatives.
Red flags include the caller's insistence on speaking in Afrikaans, the noisy background noise, and the request for personal and financial information, such as credit card details and overdraft limits. The scammers also become aggressive and abusive when questioned or confronted.
Advice: If you receive a call from this number, do not engage with the caller. Do not provide any personal or financial information, and do not invest in any opportunities they may offer. Instead, hang up and block the number to prevent further harassment. It's also a good idea to report the number to the relevant authorities, such as the National Consumer Commission or the South African Police Service.
Pushy jerk whos relentless and a total nuisance. Better skip the call!
Umuntu oguSteven (ngicabanga, igumbi elinomsindo omkhulu) wayazi igama lami, wangibuza ukuthi ngikhuluma isiBhunu. Lapho ngitshela ukuthi cha, walahla ucingo ngaphandle kokusho lutho.
Bangishaye ngento efanayo neyokuphezulu, ngavuma ukuhlangana kodwa lapho ngibatshela ukuthi nginekhadi lesikweletu elinomkhawulo ongaphansi kwe-R10 000. abasange bafuna ngami. Kubonakala kuyiklamu ngoba angitholi iwebhusayithi yenkampani naphi. Kungcono ukubatshela awunakakhadi lesikweletu
Woman claimed affiliation with Nedbank and FNB group for my husband's FICA papers; Mr. Meyer told her to contact him directly, though I'm single. :-O
Got a missed call from 087 654 1002. Rang back but no tone. Googled it, checked comments here and elsewhere. Folks say it's Capital Max calling for the husband, supervisor's orders, no details given. Young-sounding guy spoke Afrikaans, said he didn't know the reason—supervisor told him to call. I demanded the supervisor, refused to give hubby's number, and he just hung up on me. No swearing though—I'd warned him I'd read the reviews and to stay pro. Hope this warns others; glad I checked first.
Ba leka ho u qhekella chelete ka ho u fa R5000 e arolelwa, empa ba batla lintlha tsa karete ya hao le bokaholimo ba overdraft, scammers ba mabe!
Offered me free shares worth R5000. Total fraud! From a firm named Capital One or similar
Hulle bel aanhoudend tot die punt van teistering. Beslis 'n bedrog, maar punte vir volharding.
Claiming to be from Absa seeking my spouse. Initial contact offered a R5000 investment in trading. Follow-up pushed a business deal. Subsequent ones involved their supervisor demanding to talk to him. Final attempt threatened card suspension until contact... Highly unprofessional and frustrating!
Received 5 calls within under two hours. Loud call center background. Afrikaans-speaking agent pitching R5000 in stocks with massive gains promised. I ended the call, but they rang back immediately. If they branded as Nigerian Prince Ltd., it couldn't seem shadier....
They claim to represent Capital One. I requested an email with details since I couldn't meet tomorrow. The woman said my inquiries couldn't be handled via email. I insisted on seeing the information in writing first to decide on interest. She then disconnected. Can't reach back using that number. This fraudulent scheme has persisted for years; I've gotten similar calls from them at least three times over the past five years with the identical tale.
Unwanted call, they knew my name, claimed to be from Capital Maps (Max?), inquired about Afrikaans, and upon my no, said another would contact me. I blocked it.
Proposed a R5000 investment portfolio. When I inquired about the business name and contact, they disconnected.
Umshayi waba kabi kakhulu lapho ngizama ukuthola ukuthi bathathe pi number yami.
Soos al die ander. Oproep van +27 87 6541002. Ou genaam Rees van Capital Max. Dieselfde storie oor vra of ek Afrikaans praat. Sê sy Engels is nie goed nie en breek gereeld in Afrikaans oor, maar sy Engels is perfek. Hou vol dis nie 'n bedrog nie, toe sê ek dis presies wat alle bedrieërs sou sê. Ook baie lawaai in die agtergrond.
Female caller using English. Asked for my spouse, claiming Capital Max. I declined. She connected me to her 'manager,' an Afrikaans man who said a large charge hit my husband's card. Passed the phone over; he then heard about winning R5000 in JSE shares. Husband rejected it, and they disconnected. NEVER SHARE CARD INFO OR NUMBERS!!!
Indoda enguChris ishaye. Izikhathi ezintathu. Igumbi elinomsindo omkhulu. Abuze ukuthi ngikhuluma isiBhunu. Akazwisanga lutho engilishoyo. Walahla ucingo. Ngempela i-scam. Ngivimbe inombolo.
Umfana osemncane ushayela ucingo olwimfona wami futhi ucela ukukhuluma nomyeni wami ngingazi ukuthi kungani. Uyazi ukuthi uvela kuMax okuthile futhi basebenza namabhange futhi kungenzeka kube nuphi iphutha ngekhasi elilodwa lomyeni wami. Lapho ngimtshela ukuthi akulona inombolo yomyeni wami akakwazanga ngisho nje ukungitshela ukuthi yini inombolo yomyeni wami. wabe esengitshela ukuthi ngimshwabedelelisa isikhathi sakhe futhi wabeka ucingo phansi.
Bafuna ukukuvikela ukutshala imali ku-JSE, kodwa bafuna ukwazi ukuthi unekhadi lesikweletu futhi yimiphi imingcele.
Fraudulent phone attempt
Verskriklike teistering - die ou ka
Pretends it's about the national census. Asked for my hubby's digits. Told her I don't have one and live with my boys, then she demanded theirs. Got sassy and wouldn't back off. I dropped the call mid-sentence.
