Posing as a nonexistent online media company to fish for proprietary business info raises red flags about privacy invasions. These callers dodge questions on their motives, refusing to explain while pushing for sensitive details. Hanging up abruptly when challenged on sourcing your private number suggests they're avoiding scrutiny. Treat this as a potential scam or corporate espionage attempt—never share company info, personal data, or confirm employment. Block the number immediately, document the interaction with timestamps and details, and report to authorities like the FTC if in the US. For added protection, review your online presence and consider privacy tools to mask personal contacts.
Ngicela ukuthi le nombolo ingaphinde ingithinte, izimemezelo zayo ziyaphazamisa.
Impersonating a non‑existent online media firm, they probe for proprietary details about your employer, refuse to explain the purpose, and keep pressuring for answers. Do not confirm anything; the caller hung up as soon as you asked how they obtained your private number.
