*****ulent Job Offer and Payment Demand

Good afternoon. I would like to report an individual named Edwin who claims to be employed at Steve Biko Academic Hospital. Yesterday, I app**** for an Office Administration position that I found online. A few hours later, I received a call inviting me for an interview today. However, I was told that I needed to pay a fee to secure the job, which I did, paying R1,500. When I arrived at the hospital this morning, I was informed that no such position exists and that there is no employee by that name. I was also told that I am not the first person to come looking for him. My concern is that if the hospital is aware of this ongoing ****, why no action has been taken, especially since this individual is using the hospital’s name and information to de***** people. I am requesting that the Department of Health urgently investigate this matter.
