Why did we stop going to the mall as an event??

⚠️ URGENT: NEW KIDNAPPING SCAM IN SOUTH AFRICA - PLEASE SHARE ⚠️*
Ladies, please be careful in town, taxi ranks, malls, and parking lots. There’s a new method kidnappers are using:
*How the scam works:*
1. *The approach*: A man in a car stops next to you. He calls you by a name or says “Hey, get in the car! We’ve been looking for you.”
2. If you refuse and say you don’t know him, he immediately switches tactics.
He turns to people around and says loud enough for everyone to hear:
_“Don’t worry guys, she’s my wife. She has amnesia / she’s mentally ill. She gets confused like this. I just need to get her home.”_
3. *Why it works*: People don’t want to interfere in “family problems” or with someone who “has a mental illness.” So they look away. That’s exactly what he’s counting on. That’s how he gets you into the car. That’s the strategy
*IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOU:*
- Do NOT get in the car for any reason.
- Be loud and specific*: Yell “*I DO NOT KNOW THIS MAN. THIS IS KIDNAPPING. PLEASE CALL THE POLICE AND HELP ME.*”
The word “KIDNAPPING” makes people react way faster than “I’m fine.”
- *Draw attention*: Drop your bags, sit on the ground, scream. Make it impossible for him to look normal.
- *Call for help*
*AS A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC IF YOU SEE THIS HAPPENING:*
- Don’t assume it’s domestic. Don’t walk away, help the victim.
- Step in and ask the Scammer directly*: If they know the person they are trying to take, if they say yes, Ask the lady (victim) to whisper her name to you or the Lady(victim) to show you her ID…then Tell the scammer/kidnapper to tell you the name of that lady(victim) he’s trying to take.… if the scammer gets the name wrong it simply means he was trying to kidnap the lady….
- *Call 10111 or SAPS* right away and tell them you suspect a kidnapping.
- *Take details*: Car color, make, license plate, location, what the man looks like. Send to police and share to warn others.
Kidnappers are using our fear of “getting involved” and stigma around mental illness against us. Let’s not let it work.
*Please share this with your sisters, mothers, friends, coworkers, and WhatsApp groups.* One share could save a life.
Stay in groups where you can. Trust your gut. If something feels off, it probably is.
*Emergency numbers for Johannesburg:*

BLOEMSPRUIT POLICE SEEK ASSISTANCE IN FINDING MISSING 17-YEAR-OLD:
Police in Bloemspruit, Free State, are appealing to the public for assistance in locating 17-year-old Bokamoso Malope, who went missing on Sunday, 28 June 2026.
According to reports, at approximately 10:00 on Sunday morning, a caregiver from the Pelo ya Jesu Centre in the Bloemspruit area took a group of children to town. Upon returning to the centre later that day, the caregiver discovered that Bokamoso was nowhere to be found. No one has seen him since.
Initial search efforts have been conducted in Freedom Square, an area the teenager is known to frequent, as well as at local initiation schools in Rocklands.
However, all attempts to locate him have thus far been unsuccessful. The 17-year-old was last seen wearing a blue tracksuit top, blue jeans, and brown slippers.
Anyone with information regarding Bokamoso Malope’s whereabouts is urgently requested to contact the investigating officer, Detective Sergeant Ranthako, on 071 331 8880, the SAPS CrimeStop number on 08600 10111, or send an anonymous tip-off via the MySAPSApp.
A 12-year-old boy, Bandile Makhubo, has apparently been kidnapped from his grandmother’s home in Palm Springs, Evaton.
The incident took place on Saturday when four men travelling in a white Toyota Quantum kidnapped him.
Evaton police have launched an urgent search and are appealing to anyone with information to contact SAPS Evaton on 016 596 1203.

Dear World
#Tanzania is NOT safe
Based on information obtained from various sources within security agencies, we are compelled to issue a security alert to citizens and visitors planning to travel to Tanzania from now until January 2026. The security situation in Tanzania is fragile with continued acts of crimes against humanity and cover up of massacre of innocent citizens.
While we prioritize the security of all citizens, we urge tourists planning to visit Tanzania to take precautionary measures as the situation remains tense ahead of the nationwide mass demonstrations scheduled for 9 December 2025.
We will be providing updates to ensure everyone is aware of the reality on the ground
We are fixing our nation and we will be back soon and will ensure that all visitors will have a pleasant experience 💪🏽

So, according to Martin Meyer, KZN’s MEC for Public Works and Infrastructure, they’re selling off public property and Black people cannot buy in.
Him talking about it has nothing to do with them doing anything about it. Never mistake a wolf’s grin for a smile.
