FASHION FRAUD

Belhar vrou accused of conning mense out of duisende rande 'sets the record straight'

- 

AN ANGRY group of mense claim they have been conned out of thousands of rands by an alleged fraudster from Belhar, and now they want their money back.

A Facebook post went viral when one of the victims put up a reward of R3 000 to anyone who could come forward with information on how to find the alleged scammer.

The comments section was flooded with people who claimed that they, too, were scammed by her.

But the meisie accused of fraud told the Daily Voice that she has an agreement with all but one of the mense, and is paying the money “every month”.

According to the victims, she claimed that she had a legitimate business selling clothes and skoene, but once she received the money, she vanished or blocked her victims from contacting her.

Never

Ex-colleague of the accused, Steve Willis, said he knows the girl from working together at The Foschini Group (TFG) and loaned her R80 000 from his Provident Fund, but she never paid it back.
