Last night I got an unusual DSC call. According to the software used (MultiPSK), the check sum is: OK.
Unfortunately I couldn't find anything about the station, does anyone have any further information on this?
I can not rule out that it is (although the checksum is OK) but a faulty decoding.
(HF=12.577 MHz) <Selective call to a particular individual station>
Called MMSI station address: 525008097 [Ship] (Indonesia)
Category: Safety
MMSI self-identifier: 005015001 [Coast station: 75°00'S 139°00'E Adelie Land (France)] (Adelie Land (France))
Telecommand 1: Test
Telecommand 2: No information
Neither RX/TX frequencies nor position supplied
Check Sum: OK
Date and time of decoding: 02/07/2023 19:37:10

I would be very grateful for any further information about the station or the MMSI.

To me it looks as if the Indonesian oil tanker SERUI with MMSI 525008097 that where outside of Thailand had sent a test call and propagation had a french coastal station responding to it that you managed to pick up.

There are 3 possible sources of information, all coming from the popular groups,io listserver. Each of these groups cover DSC and may have a more up to date MMSI list than the one you have. Failing that, there are a number of folks that work on updating the list and might be able to find your mystery station. These groups are all quite busy

The PSK programs own database says that it is a french antarctic coast station and it has two MMSi numbers:
005010001 75°00'S 139°00'E Adelie Land (France)
005015001 75°00'S 139°00'E Adelie Land (France)

Here's the info of the station:
