Be vigilant at SASSA paypoints
Check your receipt against the money received before leaving.
THE South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) calls upon all social grant beneficiaries receiving their money at paypoints to verify the amount received prior to leaving these points.
The following can be done to avoid fraudulent activities at paypoints:
• Beneficiaries should count their money before leaving the paypoint.
• If you suspect you have been issued with fake banknotes, inform the help desk official and open a fraud case at the police.
• Check your receipt against the money received before leaving the paypoint.
• Keep the receipts safe at all times.
• Report any complaints to the help desk official before leaving the paypoint.
• Ensure that your complaint or enquiry is resolved before you leave the paypoint.
Beneficiaries are advised to be vigilant and keep their cards and PIN numbers safe at all times and not to ask anyone to count their money for them.
