Mine is Digi, so probably can cross out telco related source.

A friend's acquaintance of mine having it as well and did not update to latest mysejahtera app, so not due to it as well.

i intentionally picked up the call to see what it is about

so it's the typical MO

the caller knew my name.
the caller spoke in english with indian accent.

he said im lucky to be selected for some high investment thing.

but i keep intercepting with i can invest 10m or not.

he just replied im being ridiculous.

and he keep trying to repeat the script, and i also keep repeating 10m can or not first.

he hung up on me after that.

too bad the call still coming in daily especially around night time. i used truecaller to block international number for now.

I received calls also from UK and HK since last week (28 Dec 2021), using maxis postpaid.

I did pick up the call and the caller said "this is regarding an investment opportunity...". I replied not interest and hung up.

Now receive 3 or 4 calls from there around 7 pm to 9 pm everyday.

And I have no friend from UK and HK, so just use the phone block feature block country code +852 and +44.

A tad bit reluctant to use Truecaller because it is part of the big problem:

I don't use iphone n no idea for it. I use Huawei P30 pro n think should be similar way.

Go to your phone app -> blocked -> block rules -> blocklist -> Add -> Block prefix -> enter the country code: +852, +44

I don't think this works for iphone as I have tried and the +44 calls still came in. Truecaller has the same country prefix blocking but it only works for Android
