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.
Kuyacasula kakhulu
The caller knew my details and hung up when I asked how they obtained them. Very suspicious.
Ukuqamba !!!!
Rude and unprofessional
Indoda enqaba uStephen van Tonder ngithemba ngokuthi ngokwenzakala enye inani niyafika kulezi zithameli. Ngicela ukuba nisekele lelo qhawe uma nikeze eDurban mfana. Woza ushaye sawubona eDomination Knuckle Game futhi ubuze mina:) ngithanda ukuxoxa bukhoma.
Received the JSE pitch. They were pushy and impolite when I inquired about it. The R5000 offer and share scheme screamed spam or phishing. I told them to stop bothering me and buzz off.
An Afrikaans lady rang asking for my hubby by name. When I refused, she claimed it's Romantic Flowers delivering his order and needed his number. Sounded dodgy, so I said I'd call back – she hung up. Weird how they target guys so hard.
Worst guy ever on the line, won't take no for an answer. I said I'm in a meeting, but he called back like 10 times. Absolute harassment over the phone, and I'm hunting for where to report these clowns. Pushing R5000 in shares – what nonsense!
Bashaya izikhathi ezimbili kuya kwezintathu ngosuku indaba efanayo yamashares angu-R5000 kufanele sihlange. Umngane wami wabanjwa yiyo futhi bantshontshele u-R15 000 + R46 000 ngesonto elilodwa. Kepha bangasaya futhi sizohlangana nabo. ;)
Dame het my gebel, gevra waar hulle my man kan kry. Ek wou weet hoekom, sy wou nie sê nie. Toe vra ek weer, van waar bel sy. Sy sê Kapitol Aanlyn of so iets, asof ek moet weet wie dit is. Sy is baie volhardend en wil nie vertel waaroor dit gaan nie. Sy sê net haar baas moet dringend met my man praat. Ook iets oor verbind te wees met groot banke. Ek sê toe my man is drie jaar gelede dood, wat waar is. En sy gaan voort om te vra of ek nie 'n seun met dieselfde naam het nie. Sy glo my duidelik nie en probeer nog, bevestig weer hoe lank gelede hy oorlede is.
Ngicela umuntu abavimbele kumanethiwekhi ngoba bahlale bangifounela ngemuva kokuthi ngicelisile ukuthi bangikhiphe ohlwini lwabo
Identical frustrating encounter: now they're operating from 012 111 2003
Umfana osemncane wase-Afrikaans oqhubekayo ushayile ukungixoxela okuthile ngo-R5,000.... Ngimtshelile ukuthi anginayo intshisekelo, waqhubeka nokushaya.... Ngikhiye ucingo....
Bangifuna ngamagama esiBhunu. Lapho ngimcela ukuthi akhulume isiNgisi wangiphelisa. Umuntu ongakhuli ezimeni, ucingo lokuthengisa ngaphandle kokucelwa
Couldn't help chuckling at the caller's endless enthusiasm. Complete time sink. Wish that telemarketing hub would go up in flames.
Rude, offensive, and ill-mannered seller (stocks) who dials multiple times, speaks Afrikaans
Ucingo lokuqinisekisa imininingwane yokukhwabanisa, alunamsebenzi. Ngiyazigcina kude nalokhu.
Pretended to represent the JSE, promising R5000 in shares to start investing. They even got me to schedule a meeting with the person for Monday. Curious to discover the nonsense they'll pitch.
Ngithole ucingo kula bantu abazama ukungithengisela utshalo lwe-R5000. Lapho nginquma, 'umphathi' waba nonyane futhi ngamtshela ukuthi ahambe azenze izinto ezimbi. Abakhohlisi
According to the callers, a relative or friend from one of their seminars gave them your number. They already know your full name, speak Afrikaans, and are attempting a R5 000 scam, asking when they can meet you – “Waneer kom ons jou wêreld? More oggend, middag of aand?”
Irritating bogus ring
Ayayeki ukushaya. Sekuphele amasonto. Ngijabule ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenzisa luwavinjisile wonke amacingo.
Oor twee dae drie keer gebel - dieselfde nommer maar verskillende maatskappynaaie. Bied R5000 gratis aandele aan. Dit lyk baie verdag. Ek het nou True Caller geïnstalleer.
Kwakuhle ngomunye umuntu ezama ukungesabisa. Abantu akufanele baphendule le nombolo!
Got a call at 14:41pm claiming they'd jail my spouse over DRUGS!!!!
These folks won't stop ringing my spouse to chat with me. Once she demanded they quit bothering her, the guy shot back, 'Fine, I'll just lock your man's bank account.' Total nonsense, yo.
Eish, same nonsense call about shutting down my account. Rang up the bank and they said it's total rubbish!
A very discourteous Afrikaans lady phoned for my husband (using his name). I inquired about the purpose; she claimed ties to ABSA, FNB, Standard Bank, threatening to escalate his account unless I provided his number. Excuses about being offline with only my details on paper. She wouldn't switch to English and hung up when I wanted her boss.
U-Andre ushayele. Wanikeza u-R5000 ngamasheya njl. Ngamisa ngokucaphuna imithetho efanele lapho ngimcela ukuba ayeke ukungishayela. Waqala wacaphuna imithetho engazalwanga. Ngabuza ukuthi wenza ini nangaba ucabanga ukuthi uyahlekisa. Waqala wamemeza, eqeda ngo-"gaan vlieg". Inkampani enhle (cha), igcina isazi esibi sabathengisi bezifundo zokuhweba amasheya e-ZA
Mariska phoned asking if I could assist, but bluntly called me a miserable guy. It's Afrikaans, and definitely not someone or a business I'd ever engage with!!!
