There are no terms between 449 and 10^5. Are there any more terms? Are there infinitely many?
No more terms below 10^9. - Amiram Eldar, Sep 26 2019

EXAMPLE
Let f(n) = EulerPhi(sigma(EulerPhi(n))). Proper divisors of 28 = {1, 2, 4, 7, 14}; the sum of their f-values = 1+1+2+4+4 = 12 = f(28); hence 28 belongs to the sequence.
