KwaZulu-Natal police warn of WhatsApp messages selling SAPS jobs for R7,500
IOL reported that KwaZulu-Natal police warned of WhatsApp messages offering police jobs in exchange for an upfront payment of R7,500. DailyDrop did not find a second report.
Job scams target unemployed people at a time of record fuel prices and high joblessness.
Never pay to get a government job. Report such messages to the police.
One report; the warning itself is the useful part.
