Expert Opinion

Beware of calls claiming to be from Absa’s fraud department – they’re often a scam. Callers typically ask for your name, the last four digits of your cellphone, and press‑tone responses to confirm details. Never share personal or banking information over the phone unless you initiated the call and have verified the number independently. Hang up immediately, add the number to your block list, and report the incident to your actual bank and to local consumer protection agencies. Using call‑blocking apps and regularly reviewing account activity can further reduce risk. Stay vigilant and verify any unexpected requests before acting.

Scam alert for this number. It rang me with a voice warning of fraud in my bank. Then they want name confirmation and last four cellphone digits, plus to hit 1 or 2 if wrong. Hang up and block right away. Absa says it's not them, number isn't theirs. Also 010 140 3000.
