Expert Opinion
Heads up: this +27812487387 number seems tied to aggressive Telkom‑related telemarketing that often hangs up or stays silent. Callers frequently claim to be Telkom sales agents pushing upgrades, yet they rarely provide verifiable details and may employ pressure tactics. To protect yourself, block the number on your device and consider adding it to a national Do‑Not‑Call registry. If the call claims to be from Telkom, verify the request by reaching out through official Telkom channels before sharing any personal information. Finally, report persistent harassment to your telecom provider or the consumer protection authority, as repeated unsolicited calls can breach local regulations.

Acting as Telkom representative
It's surprising that, despite being blocked via Trucaller, they continue to call, presumably because they're paid for each call made, regardless of whether it's answered or not.
Mobile sales from Telkom persist, sometimes three attempts per day; even after blocking months ago, the calls keep coming.

Encountered a very impolite individual on the line. Refused to reveal their identity. Their goal seems to be drawing you into chatter.

Everyone, watch out for this number: 0812487387. A scam warning will show on your device. Even if you're a Telkom customer, these fraudsters are skilled at convincing you. Expect a call from someone posing as a Telkom advisor pushing an upgrade, maybe for extra data or a better contract. They already possess your personal info, like account details, and just need your approval to proceed. Don't get tricked! Head to a Telkom branch in person for any upgrades. Stay alert and block all suspicious numbers!
Although True Caller has blocked this number, I still receive a large volume of missed calls from them

Extremely impolite and hostile
Despite blocking the number months ago, it continues to appear with up to four blocked calls daily.
The caller, seemingly from Telkom, has plagued me for years, hanging up before I can respond; I anticipate ending Telkom service when convenient.

I have no clue who this is, but it seems they’re hiring people who can’t even handle a simple phone call. The callers are unbelievably clueless.
The call disconnects after just a few seconds, without anyone speaking
Gonna report TELKOM SALES to Consumer Council
By selecting option 3 and requesting removal from their database, as stipulated in the Consumer Protection Act of 2010, the issue can be resolved, and the representative is reportedly courteous
Further investigation revealed that the company, Cell Direct, is based in Observatory and has acquired personal information from Telkom, with Merle and Nabuwya being key contacts, suggesting a potential breach worth reporting to POPI enforcement

No sound on the line, so no clue who's behind it.
A man claimed to be from Telkom Mobile, offering an upgrade on my contract and a new phone. He called my MTN line but quoted my Telkom number. When I said I’d visit a Telkom store myself, he abruptly hung up.
