Checkers Kyalami Corner scam!
My mother was scammed today at Kyalami Corner checkers buying groceries. The scammer was literally dressed as one of the security guards working there and told her he had a voucher which she could use to pay off her some groceries, and how he would benefit from this is that she would in return give him a bit of money. He explained that he was not getting paid enough and that this little money would help him greatly.
And so my mother agreed. He then asked for her phone to make it seem as if she were paying through her phone for the cameras and left to some back door and didn’t return. My mom did inform the manager but l doubt they will do anything and considering how ineffective this country’s police force is l doubt they will do anything either.
I have no idea what to say or do 😭
(The phone was a iPhone 17 pro btw)
