With reference to Gert Campher owner of (S)CAM SECURITY also operating as BGSL Neighborhood Watch in Bloemfontein. The business are currently suspended as per PSIRA regulations but Mr Campher still "operates" it in his ways. I worked for Mr Camper, knows all his tricks how he receives money for installations but uses it for his personal life. Try phoning him, he does not answer. WhatsApp him, he ignores. I worked in the control room and had to lie to countless customers he did in in that way. Further he doesn't pay his staff. Two year 17 control room operators, non PSIRA registered went through the container he calls a control room where even the software program was cut of because Mr Champer didn't pay it. There's 0 reaction officers in company, they left because they too never got paid. Mr Campher does the reaction, that is when he feels like it, which he normally doesn't. Time and again control would phone him with alarm and he just doesn't pick up. He owes dozens of people money & installations he never finishes and has a way of lying his way out of it. Faults on current installations, you're lucky if he comes fix it within 6 months. Be very careful of this company (S)CAM SECURITY BLOEMFONTEIN If offered employment stay away, you're guaranteed not to get paid.

Gert Campher ***ner) was instructed to install a new energizer for the electric fence at a complex. The monies were paid over to him the same day. However, a month later, the equipment hasn't been installed. Numerous phone calls and Whatsapp were made without any feedback from him. I have requested for the monies to be refunded, but this request also went gone unanswered. I recommend NOT doing business with this company. A case of ***** is being made against the company.

CAM Security is the most unreliable, unprofessional, untrustworthy, and criminally dishonest business I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. We were clients for almost 5 years, and we quickly learned that getting even the simplest things done needed numerous phone calls and eventually threats. In June 2022, we paid for security beams to be installed and after weeks of phone calls and requests to give our deposit back, the owner finally did some of the work but then disappeared and blocked our numbers. We had to resort to the Court of Small Claims to get our money back. We have since learned that this man has scammed several other people in a similar manner over the past few years, with amounts ranging from R4 000 to R300 000. He similarly cheats his suppliers and even his own staff. And the cherry on top is that we recently discovered that his incompetent contractors had drilled into our main power cable when they did the bare minimum work in July. We now have a blackened wall where the damaged cable had flared dangerously. How this person stays in business, and out of jail, is absolutely beyond me.
