3 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from Microsoft, told me my computer was hacked or something!!! Total rubbish, I just ended the call there and then.Microsoft3 yearsI ended up chatting with these people a few times. What’s weird is that if you ring them back, they actually answer and seem to know who you are, greeting you by name. They said they’re from a company called DCS. When I asked for more details, they claimed to be regeneration agents but insisted they don’t have a website or any public info. After a few dropped calls from different agents, I got passed along to someone who called themselves a verifier. This person couldn’t verify anything either - no company credentials, no registration info. They mentioned being based in South Africa but wouldn’t tell me who they worked for, just that it was other agents. One of the reps denied asking for personal info at first but when I pushed back and said they were asking about medical conditions and stuff, they backtracked but kept insisting, “We’re not selling anything!” According to them, they source their data from the usual places, so likely they’re just buying lists from some site where you tick a box without realising it’s for selling your info and then cold calling.DCSSouth Africa3 yearsI've received repeated calls from someone inquiring about my life insurance coverage.3 yearsThey claimed their name was DCS when I asked what the company did, just kept repeating DCS. They said they were calling to verify a policy I supposedly had in place. Thing is, I never set up any policy lately. Ended the call straight away. Felt like a scam to me.DCS3 yearsI saw the call but didn’t pick up since I had no idea who it was, so I’m not sure who tried to ring me.3 yearsGot a call from some annoying insurance lot, wouldn’t bother picking up next time.3 yearsThe second I picked up, they just cut off.
