Got a call purporting to be from Microsoft, saying my computer had been hacked! What a load of nonsense - they hung up as soon as I questioned them!

I recently had a few chats with these folks, and it was rather enlightening. If you give them a ring back, they'll actually pick up and will register your number while addressing you by name. They claim to be affiliated with DCS, and when I pressed for further details about the company, they labelled themselves as regeneration agents. Curiously, they lack a website or any kind of information to back up their claims. After a bit of persistence on my part, I was passed along the line as various agents opted to end the call prematurely. It seems they’re supposedly operating from South Africa, but the person I ended up with held a title of "verifier" yet had no means of corroborating any information. They hinted that they act on behalf of other agents but were rather tight-lipped about who they really represent. At one point, an agent insisted they weren’t probing for personal information. However, when I mentioned they’d asked me about medical conditions, they backtracked a bit but continued to insist that "we aren't selling anything!" According to the agent, their data is sourced from the usual suspects, suggesting that some checkbox on a different website led to the sale of my information, resulting in these unsolicited calls.

I've received repeated calls from someone inquiring about my life insurance coverage.

Received a call claiming to be from DCS. When I inquired about what that stood for, the chap simply stated it was the company's name. They were keen to assist in verifying whether my policy was in order, but the truth is, I haven’t initiated any policy arrangements lately. I decided to cut the conversation short and hang up. Definitely dodgy characters.

I chose not to pick up the phone since I didn't recognise the number. Consequently, I'm unsure who was trying to reach me.
