TimesLIVE reports that the Hawks in Mpumalanga have warned the public not to fall victim to fraudsters offering fake jobs in the police service.
Head of the Hawks in the province, Maj-Gen Nico Gerber, said on Tuesday that police had received a number of complaints about people receiving calls from 'police personnel' promising them job opportunities in the police service. “Members of the public should bear in mind that there is no institution that can just call you about employment opportunities without you having applied. It should serve as a red flag when the caller begins to demand money during the conversation,” Hawks spokesperson Lt-Col Magonseni Nkosi said. Gerber cautioned not to provide any personal or financial information to any person claiming to be a representative of the SA Police Service. Nkosi said at no stage would the police service or any government department demand money in exchange for employment.
