Sometime in 2020 just immediately after Covid lockdown, my father got a call from a certain “Williams Williams” as identified by Truecaller… he claimed to be from his bank without mentioning a particular banks name. During the cause of their conversation about BVN linkage my father asked “what is your name”? the criminal said Mattew from your bank. Again my father asked “Why then is Truecaller showing your name as Williams Williams then he replied “ I didn’t the line with my real name” immediately my father said Call me with the bank Line and we can finish the conversation…. Until today we are still waiting for his call.. Living in a society filled with scammers, it’s essential everyone both young and old make use of Truecaller for true identity of their callers.

Omo see Truecaller, if I save your number through Truecaller, every other person that sees your name on Truecaller sees the one I saved it with, as such anything the last person using Truecaller to save your name with appears same in orders phone, irrespective of the fact that he was trying to scam you, your dad too had trust issues

IGI must have done you strong thing. But don't generalise.
Though IGI is fast sinking, did you observe the clauses and of Ur insurance policy?

True talk.

Government would force you into insuring,as in case of vehicle insurance,then abandons you when it's time for claims.
