Wanted to get some gymshark items for gym and came across the south african site www dot gymsharksouthafrica dot com. Google said the site was secure, so I proceeded to open an account and purchase my selected items. After checkout I didn't get a confirmation of order, so I used the site's "contact me" tab and sent 2 messages. No replies. Then reached out to the gymshark support team (UK or US site) and after 2 days of back and forth to trace my order, they concluded that the south african site was fraudulent as only gymshark dot com was legit. I might've left it too late to get my bank to reverse the transaction, but will follow a process to report this site and get them taken down. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS SITE
Uber can add common thieves to the long list of criminal activity of their drivers in South Africa. After settling my trip in cash, I got email from Uber informing me that I didn’t settle the amount in full. I actually paid more than the trip costs and in fact had to pay again the next day when I used the app as the previous trip was still unpaid. If you’re reading this, please use the cash payment option with caution, as you have no proof (as you would with credit card settlements) that the cash you hand to the driver brings the transaction to a close. Their thieving drivers can simply pocket the cash and say you didn’t pay, and Uber’s customer care will side with them. I can’t tell you how it thrills me when their drivers are fined for not having permits. Thieving *******s!
