One of our African staff members just had his complete salary through a Capitec Sim Swap. This comes hot off the heels of a big media story of a lady that had R280, 000 from her Absa account - and EFT's were made into Capitec accounts.
Our staff member was contacted by someone supposedly from Capitec, who had all his details. They told him there was an erroneous debit order activated on his account, and she could reverse it if he wanted. She asked for his cell numbers, and the next day his sim was invalid. Before he realized what went wrong, his account was cleaned out. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is beginning to look like Capitec has some rotten fish in there.
BEWARE when dealing with them.
