In Bellville, a woman listed a couch on Facebook Marketplace for R4,500. A buyer contacted her and sounded normal, sent proof of payment, and said the money was “held” until she verified her bank account.
By 21:14, R42,870 was gone from her bank accounts. The bank said it was authenticated and they could not help her.
