If it sounds too good to be true, it is!

moral of the luxury vehicle ponzi scheme story: don't be too gullible guys! #carteblanche

So, why did the Comrades Marathon organisers opt to change this year's cut-off times? Rowyn James tells @LourensaEckard they were under pressure to open up the roads. But @runningmann100 is not convinced... #CarteBlanche

How do banks give a line of credit to one individual for 14 - FOURTEEN - cars?!?!? Also if someone is going to commit fraud on your behalf, chances are, they are not your friend! #CarteBlanche

I cannot imagine the devastation of losing my entire life savings in one deluge. A scary glimpse of our global future with climate change #carteblanche

@clairemawisa *or even a few years ago 🤦‍♀️ …I think I’m hardcore when I manage a 5km run!

[Laura Byrne @LCB1989]

@TheRealConza 😂😂 You’re way ahead of me - I can barely keep a cactus alive…I definitely belong in Joburg, at least before this agriculture story came along!

When will they learn??

This Hatfield story makes me think about all the partying I did in my student days… a lot of time in grungy clubs where we mostly took our safety for granted. I guess there are always bad spots but…has it got worse or am I just getting old? #carteblanche

“My money is being taken by people who have money” - this lawyer took appalling advantage of our most vulnerable with absolute and callous impunity. I have no words #carteblanche

[Laura Byrne @LCB1989]

Fighting fire with fire is a potential recipe for escalation and disaster…but can you really blame Thatha Zonke for stepping in to create the solutions their community needs? It’s a sense of purpose in the face of fear and desperation #carteblanche

[Laura Byrne @LCB1989]

“The country doesn’t belong to the government”…words of wisdom from Dr Imtiaz Sooliman. So easy to feel worn down by challenges in our own country, never mind the world - but he has endless optimism and energy to meet the needs of others #carteblanche

#ProfMulaloDoyoyo what an inspiration 👏👏👏! South Africans have many times in the past, shown we have the solutions to world problems #FirstHeartTransplant now #LiquidCement #FightingClimateChange #CarteBlanche #SouthAfricansChangingTheWorld #Proud 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

But isn't this a grrat idea though? Many nre home buyers just dont know what to look out for in this complicated market. He's just going about it in a wrong way 😂😂 #carteblanche

[Laura Byrne @LCB1989]

This man is a national treasure but with such a self-deprecating manner you’d walk past him on the street and never know it!

[Carte Blanche @carteblanchetv]

It’s cheaper, lighter, environmentally friendly and as strong as traditional cement. The inventions inspired by village life, in the Venda community that raised him. That's next on #CarteBlanche. https://t.co/tb32cj8yTI

Sheer barefaced nerve and a little creativity is pretty much all you need to make it as a #scamster in this economy - if you believe your own rubbish, so will your targets 🤷‍♀️ #carteblanche
