Fraudsters target tourists with permit scams in Cape Town
Cape Argus
|September 23, 2025
TOURISTS are once again being targeted by fraudsters claiming they need a permit to walk down certain roads in the Atlantic Seaboard strip and are using ATM devices to trick unsuspecting victims.
Jacques Weber, Director of WatchTower Group and founder of the Atlantic Seaboard Response (ASB) said during a latest incident a German tourist was defrauded by criminals who coaxed him into believing that he had to pay a permit to be in that stretch of road.
“Earlier today (Tuesday) another tourist was targeted by fraudsters in De Waterkant. These criminals claim you need a “permit” to walk down certain streets and then trick tourists into paying on what looks like an ATM but is actually a card-cloning keypad,” Weber explained.
