It has been brought to the attention of the Council Leadership and Municipal Management that we have another syndicate dealing with “Municipal Jobs for Cash Scam” which promises ordinary citizens municipal jobs in return for money.

An appeal is made to all members of the community to be aware of this “Municipal Jobs for Cash Scam”. The latest scammer calls himself Mr. Richard Vilakazi and is using the following phone numbers: 0648053618, 0665479608, and 0716212328. They request potential job seekers to make a payment at a retail store.

The Municipality has approved Human Resource Management policies and procedures which are applicable in all recruitment and appointment processes of municipal employees. Furthermore, the municipality does not charge any money throughout any of its recruitment processes.

We are encouraging the public not to pay or deposit any money via Spar/Shoprite/Pick N Pay/Pep or any other Retail Shop/Bank Account for the purpose of getting an appointment for an interview or municipal job.
