HI Paul,

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused with regards to this matter.

Kindly note that Direct Market is not an ******* activity, we obtain data from various data houses which is legal.

Should you wish you remove your number, please use this website www.dmasa.org, but we will escalate this further to have your number removed from our company list.

Warm Regards

Mobius Team

Not good enough. and i would like you to pay specific attention to the following:

"I demand to know where you obtained my details,

Please see section 45 of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, 25 of 2002.

Please note that a failure to comply with this request constitutes a

******** offence in terms of section 45 of the ECTA and that the continued

receipt of unsolicited communications may lead to prosecution.

I hereby request that you immediately disclose where you obtained my contact

details, as per section 45(1) of the ECTA and/or section 22(1) of the POPIA."

you may call me on my cell (for which you already have my number) to let me know where you obtained my details.
