1604758752338784256 | The number of people over the age of 65 who are losing their savings to fraudsters pretending to be calling them from their bank’s fraud division - and tricking them into divulging their PINs etc- is shocking. Please warn the older people in your life! 🙏🙏🙏 | 969 |

1594591020590985217 | A debt collecting firm offered Marco an 80% “Black Friday discount”on his R124K Woolies debt. He was 🎉🕺but also 🥺 that it was too good to true and his R24 800 would end up in a fraudster’s account. So he checked with me. And I checked with Woolies… | 200 |
1625359695220248576 | Two problems with this sign, @EdgarsFashion - there’s no E in lay-by and the thing about this form of payment is that you can’t have it now; only when you’ve paid it off (without interest). https://t.co/VLaR6xgbOm | 176 |

1592030777717710848 | I wonder how the suppliers of these chairs at CT International’s arrivals hall described the covering… If the word leather was on the invoice, like so many South Africans who’ve bought “leather” lounge suites, that hasn’t ended well. https://t.co/47ASUHR8tO | 44 |
