Expert Opinion

Most calls seem to be spoofed telemarketing attempts pretending to be Old Mutual. Callers use a weird accent, claim system changes, and push a “portfolio update” to get you to hand over personal information. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately, verify any claim by logging into your official Old Mutual account or calling the number on your policy documents. Never confirm details like ID numbers or bank data over the phone. Register the number with your mobile’s spam blocker, report it to the national consumer protection agency, and consider adding it to a personal block list. Staying skeptical and using official channels keeps you safe.

When I dialed this number from a landline, a lady answered and explained that Old Mutual had changed its dialing system because advisers were working from home, resulting in an unusual number. She said the typical prefix is 0215… and assured me it was indeed Old Mutual, noting that the network cuts out during recordings.
