Expert Opinion

Oddly enough, the same silent line keeps popping up with bogus bank offers that vanish the moment you answer. Callers masquerade as Standard Bank or other familiar institutions, pitching credit‑card upgrades before cutting the connection. Never share personal details or account numbers with an unknown caller – legitimate banks will never demand that over the phone. Use your phone’s block feature or a third‑party app to silence the number, and report the nuisance to your carrier and the local consumer protection agency. If you’re unsure, hang up and call the official bank number you already have saved.
