A concise report based on available public sources indicates potential association with spam or uncertain ownership for the number +27127640688 (South Africa). Publicly reported activity appears limited and reliability varies across sources; callers should exercise caution. 1. Ownership/type: No definitive, verifiable identification of a specific organization or individual. Several SA oriented reverse lookup and spam report sources categorize unknown or dubious numbers as potentially spam or telemarketing, without confirming a legitimate owner. The number format matches South African mobile numbering, but no authoritative carrier or company attribution is established. 2. Online sentiment: Multiple SA focused spam report and reverse lookup sites show mixed results or generic warnings about unknown numbers; some entries label similar looking numbers as spam or suspicious, while others provide basic lookup tools with no conclusive owner details. 3. Spam/fraud association: Evidence suggests a possibility of spam or telemarketing for numbers in the same regional format, but there is no consistent, conclusive report tying this exact number to scam or phishing activity across trusted databases. 4. Public exposure/leaked status: The number appears in public facing lookup sites and spam report databases. However, there is no clear indication of a confirmed data breach, leak, or paste site posting specific to this exact number. 5. Call back advisability: Given ambiguous ownership and potential spam indicators, answering or returning calls is not recommended; if contact is necessary, verify through official channels (e.g., the known business line from a legitimate website) rather than returning an unknown call.

Call received around 9.30am. When I answered, caller hung up. I called the number to check, and indeed it was Outsurance. I am currently a policy holder. I deem calls like this to be harassment and won't accept that behaviour from a service supplier, so I shall be terminating my policy. It has been reported to Outsurance, but based on the history of this reporting page, I suspect the outcome will be of no interest to me.

Called me with pretext of congratulating on upcoming future Outbonus payment (no guarantees on that, yikes), offered some kind of policy discount if I supplied a name of anyone who could be interested taking out insurance. I didn't have such info but but then he wanted me to somehow open my phones Contacts (do something with the phone. I refused and hung up.

Outsurance. Will NOT take no for an answer. Will NOT send you the "terms of the policy" BEFORE activating it. States that "their calls are recorded" and therefore "you are safe" in case of a claim but then WONT send you the "call recording" before opting in for the contract online. In what world do you live and how do you operate under a financial license? How can it be LEGAL to make someone agree to a contract BEFORE having all the fineprint in writing? When things go wrong, the "recordings" always "mysteriously gets lost" as have happened to me before. The recordings always are available when YOU are penalised, NOT when the insurance company is at fault.

Says he's from Outsurance and got my name from a friend. I said we're already at Outsurance. He wanted my full names and birth date so that he can remove my number from their system. I replied no, just remove my number. Do they think we're stupid or what.

Sick to death of these telemarketers, receive at least 4 calls a day every day from Outsurance!. If they don't get hold of you then they call from an alternative number, hoping that you pick up the call.

Attempted phishing call: The man claimed he was from Outsurance and was referred to me by a lady I did not know. He tried to obtain vehicle information from me and my ID or insurance number. Internet search shows the number to be from a construction company in Moregloed, Pretoria.
