I have just been scammed by a profile HaMMerHeaD. He goes by the name of Albert S Botha and has 2 numbers:
0659616159 - Truecaller brings this up as Dian Steyn. This name has come up before as DS steyn.
Other number is: 079 466 3901
The guy contacted me directly as I was enquiring about a cpu and offered me a good price.
I told him that I can do eft no problem but that I need the waybill number first.
He was very smooth and knew exactly what he was doing.
I ended up paying the bugger, with him promising me he’s on his way to postnet to ship, but his cellphone is flat so he’ll send me the waybill number as soon as he’s home. Still messaged me saying he’s had car trouble, hence the delay.
After that, nothing. I contcted FNB fraud devision to investigate as I am now opening up a case of theft and fraud against the account holder. I also have a PI looking into the numbers and address supplied by him.
Be careful! He didnt want to chat on PM over Carbonite and insisted to stick to whatssapp.
If you see HaMMerHead, stay away.
