EWN reports that the City of Johannesburg has warned job seekers to be vigilant after three people were arrested for making R400,000 from a Pick-It-Up job scam.
Apparently, the trio had been targeting unsuspecting victims, charging them R600 for three-month contract jobs and R5,000 for permanent jobs at the company. A few individuals were employed temporarily, but no one was employed permanently. The City's Lucky Sindane reported that the suspects appeared in the Protea Magistrate's Court on Monday: “The three suspects appeared before the Protea Magistrate’s Court today. One was granted R1,200 bail because she is highly pregnant and other two will appear again on the 17th of this month for a formal bail application.”
