We received a tender last week from Amanda Msibi @ social development stating the following:

"The National Department of Social Development invites all interested parties to respond to Requests for QUOTATIONS or PROPOSALS as indicated for the supply and delivery of the COPPERIC CUTTING DISC 125MM model no.

Kindly confirm receipt of this Request for Quotation via email or a telephone call, Thank you.

Kind regards Amanda Msibi Supply-Chain Manager Tel: ********** Fax: ********** Email: **********

We did get the quote but got suspicious with how fast the decision was made that we were awarded the tender and the process to be followed.

Visited Social Department to confirm the Tender and the person we have been communicating with. Department confirmed it is a scam. We called Amanda to meet us downstairs at securities and she said she is coming. After a few minutes we called again, the voice was the same but name changed to Lerato then to Tebogo.

Then we asked, are running a scam? And they said yes.

Please be aware and help us crack this crooks.
