Urgent notice of money market fraud

The police are warning the public to take note of the following preventative measures to prevent fraud

Witbank police are experiencing an increase in the number of fraud cases specifically related to money marketing.

The police are warning the public to take note of the following preventative measures to prevent fraud.

Don’t buy any properties that are advertised in newspapers and the internet before confirming the seller’s names and account details.

Property like vehicles, boats and trailers should first be physically seen and owner’s certificates should be handed in as proof of ownership.

When using money market cash transfers the depositor of the money should alert the receiver telephonically of the transaction and he or she must keep the cell phone and the transaction code safe and secure.

Always keep a distance between you and the clients behind you at the money market deposit counters.

If you suspect any fraud at the money market outlet phone the SAPS Crime Stop number on 086 0010 111.
