Con artist!

Riedwaan came to "repair" my parents fridge a week ago. They are in theirs 80s and state pensioners. He phoned me while he was at their place, and informed me that he had repaired the fridge, and insisted that I pay him R1,450 via instant EFT before he left the premises. The fridge hadn't been left running for long enough yet to see if it indeed was fixed and getting cold. I expressed my concern about this, and he said he insists on payment on site, and he always does follow up checks the following day. He also mentioned that all his work carries an 8-month guarantee. So I paid him the R1,450 on behalf of my parents. Well, the fridge had not been repaired. it never ever got cold! Despite many many phonecalls and WhatsApps to Riedwaan over the past 6 days, to this day he has not returned to fix the fridge, despite several empty promises to do so. Bottom line - he robbed 2 elderly people of R1450. Do not ever use him to repair your appliances! You'll risk getting caught like we did, by a person who has absolutely no morals or business ethics.
