Expert Opinion
Reports consistently flag calls claiming to be from the Department of Home Affairs as fraudulent, especially those urging immediate action like pressing keys for language options. This tactic preys on urgency to extract personal details or install malware. Hang up immediately if you receive such a call—never press buttons or provide information. Verify any government messages directly through official channels, like the department's website or known contact numbers. Block the number and report it to authorities to prevent further scams. Staying vigilant protects your data and avoids financial loss.
