  The SABC uses an agency. I replied with emails. They threatened me with blacklisting. I got the same message as you. I sold my TV, gave them proof, but they kept on. I later contacted the ombudsman and cc them. They eventually stopped.

  If you own a TV and haven't paid for a licence, as you admit, then you owe the SABC money. But, that aside, this looks like a collection agency collecting on behalf of the SABC and they have sourced your number from somewhere. You will likely receive messages like this until the end of time, unless you pay the licence fee via a legitimate payment means. Best advice is to ignore this message anyway.

  I use a computer and monitor to stream , I pay Netflix and prime. I also receive messages saying I owe them R8000. I have never bought a TV ever.

  This is obviously a scam. You can see that the address isn't even a .*** one. Scammers use this tactic to scam unwitting people. DO NOT PAY ANYTHING. Regards, FRIEDRICH MAKKINK Scammer Payback South Africa
