THULI ZUNGU | Desperate man loses R32000 to fraudsters
The so-called"419" scammers will always find a way of depriving Sowetan readers of their money.
Common to this scam is that the fraudsters get the victim to send money upfront by promising them huge amounts of money they would receive later if they co-operate. Makitla was looking for funding when he responded to a Linkedin account which he believed was a legitimate account of education minister Angie Motshekga.
Makitla, who is involved in development projects, said he needed to do food gardening project around schools, particularly in Dennilton in Sekhukhune, Limpopo.
