The message directs interested parties to transfer R200 through various supermarkets. The municipality has released a warning for residents to not fall for this fraudulent act.

“People must note that municipal jobs are advertised in Metro Ezasegagasini, the Municipality-owned newspaper, and other reputable newspapers. Also, applicants are not required to pay any money to qualify for a position,” said deputy head of communication, Mandla Nsele.

Residents who receive this message are urged to report the matter to a nearest police station. Alternatively they can report to the Municipality’s City Integrity and Investigations Unit on 0800 202020.

My name is Sanelisiwe Tsinde, and I'm a mother of two boys and very family-oriented. Being a community journalist for years, I can proudly say I love writing about positive community news articles and giving a voice to the voiceless. Seeing people getting assistance warms my heart. Every day is a different challenge and a new learning opportunity. I supply news for our trusted publication weekly, and a few years ago, Caxton ventured into online publication, so I contribute daily to the websites. I could say I am a multimedia journalist, and working in a community newspaper is beneficial as we do not focus on one thing but we do a bit of everything.
