Phone number ☎️ 0119720170 👆 is reported as a number frequently linked to a scam involving a caller claiming to be "Christo Fourie" from SARS, the South African Revenue Service. Callers claim that the recipient is owed a tax refund from a previous employer, using personal details such as ID numbers, past addresses, and employer information to appear legitimate. Victims are often urged to visit a nearby SARS office or provide additional information. However, SARS confirms no knowledge of such calls, indicating fraudulent activity. Reports show concern about how scammers obtained personal data and warn against sharing further details, as the intent appears to be identity theft or financial fraud. Potential victims are advised to verify independently with official SARS contacts and avoid engaging with the caller.

So, I got a call after 6pm from someone saying they were with Rand Couriers, claiming there was a Cell C parcel waiting for me. Thing is, we hadn’t ordered anything and the actual Rand Couriers place was already shut. The lady on the phone said her name was Melanie. Bit fishy if you ask me.

Why does he always lie when he rings me? Total rubbish! I don’t owe a single penny to anyone, so what’s the point of his calls? Even SARS has no clue who this guy is... proper scammer. People who try fooling others like this are basically criminals in my opinion! If they really owe money, they should have the guts to be upfront and deal with folks honestly!

Has anyone actually managed to get a refund for this problem?? Been wondering if it’s even possible!

Had the exact same call yesterday... they claimed my last boss deducted too much tax and that SARS was meant to pay me back R6721.00. I phoned SARS, and they had zero record of this on their end, saying I'd have to send in my IRP 5 form. Thing is, I’m not even owed anything. Anyone else dealt with this? What’s the next step?

I got a call from this bloke called Christo Fourie, he somehow had loads of my info. He reckoned I was due R6721 from SARS, something about my old job from six years ago. Good job I double-checked all my old details and didn’t spill any fresh info. Bet he’s hunting for me in the wrong place now! Haha.

Today, I got a call from this Christo Fourie bloke, giving me that exact same line and he knew all my info too. Can anyone tell us what’s going on here? Would really appreciate some feedback.

I got a call from Christo Fourie, who somehow had all my details - like my ID, old home address and even my old work address. He claimed my previous employer had overpaid PAYE and that he would sort a refund for me at the nearest SARS office. I asked loads of questions and he sounded pretty legit. Now I’m just left wondering what he actually plans to do with all my personal info. Can anyone tell me if this is safe or what I should watch out for?

I got a call from this number too, and the guy told me he works for a firm that tracks down people who haven’t paid their bills and keep avoiding it. He said he’s employed by solicitors, which is why he had all our info. The solicitors pass the details to his company, who then locate and follow up on the debtors. They don’t really care how they do it, as long as the info is correct. He gave me the solicitors' contact, I rang them, and managed to sort everything out. Honestly, some of you complaining should maybe reflect on if you actually owe anything, instead of hiding and acting dodgy. This person isn’t up to anything dodgy; he's just doing his job. I don’t know the guy personally, but he’s not some criminal running scared. So, before you start accusing him of wrongdoing, maybe have a think.

I got a call from this number today too, and they were telling the exact same thing. Weirdly, they already knew loads about me. I’m almost certain it’s some kind of scam, but I don’t really know what they plan to do with all the info they have. If anyone has any advice or has dealt with this, please share!

Fourie called me with some strange message, sounded like a prayer or something, but honestly, I had no clue what he was on about. It felt like he was trying to get me involved in some ritual or weird gathering, which was a bit unsettling.

Hey, just wanted to share that yesterday I got a call from this number, with someone named Chris Fourie claiming I’m owed a refund from SARS. They said they needed to verify my info, which seemed odd since they already had all my details. Turns out the company’s called Horton Mpumalanga, and another phone number linked to them is 011 972 0063. I spoke to a guy named Tjaard van der Walt there, and he said they got our information from the Mpumalanga department, but he wouldn’t tell me exactly who passed it on. Bit fishy if you ask me!

I got a call from this number too, some guy called Christo Fourie said he was from SARS. He had loads of my personal info, even my bank details and ID number, and knew where I live and work. He claimed I was owed R5600 and said he’d be forwarding the claim to my local SARS office. Apparently, they would get in touch for me to pop in with my ID and bank statements from the last 3 months. It sounded pretty convincing, but is this for real? Has anyone actually got the money from them?

Got a call from this number again today and the bloke sounded so dodgy, kept saying I had some cash waiting or something!

I got a call from this number too. The guy on the line said his name was Christo Fourie and claimed he had already rung my husband asking where the nearest SARS office was so I could complete some paperwork for a transfer of R3700 to me. He said he needed to talk to me personally. Then he contacted my workplace, saying he was from SARS in Johannesburg, telling them I was due a refund because my old employer supposedly deducted too much PAYE. My employer told him to ring me back since I was busy on another call at the time. But Christo Fourie never called again. When I try to ring this number, it just goes straight to an automated message. What’s really unnerving is how he somehow knew details about my current employer and even mentioned that the company didn’t have a landline number online. Plus, he had loads of info about me. Honestly, it’s making me feel really uneasy!

Hi, just wanted to share that I got a call from a man called Christo, who spoke to my daughter about some money SARS supposedly owes her. He already knew her old employer’s info and even her ID number, which freaked me out a bit. He claimed he’d send the owed money to the SARS office in our local area. What’s really worrying is how he had all the right info on her!

Some bloke called himself Christo Fourie, claiming he worked for SARS. He mentioned that I supposedly have money owing from when I was in the military before.
