SCAMMERS ARRESTED<br />

Durban residents, Ravenda Singh and Andrew Singh have<br />

been arrested for their part in the 2018 R99 debt order scam.<br />

Father and Son, Ravenda and Andrew were arrested and<br />

charged with their role in a scam that involved R99 debit<br />

orders from November 2018 till Feb 2019. They were the<br />

directors of a call centre in KZN, called Sub User that was<br />

involved in the scam. Investigations by the banks and in<br />

conjunction with the Hawks revealed their involvement and<br />

led to their recent arrest.<br />

Overall, the Hawks think the scam involving a syndicate of<br />

operators brought in around R248 Million from unsuspecting<br />

consumers who were repeatedly hit with bogus debit orders<br />

for R99 at a time.
