The Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory has been made aware of a new scam, which involves a very poorly written email where the sender claims to be incensed by another email asking for money on behalf of the Centre of Memory.
The sender asks to be “authorised” in order to alert the authorities, and gives a suspect email address (Ferdj42@hotmail.com).
The email speaks of a Dr. Vusi who requests 730 euros, and also contains a bogus email address (mandelachildrensfund.consultant@hotmail.co.za), both of which have no affiliation with the NMCM.
If you receive this email, please delete it and do not reply. The public is again reminded that the NMCM does not send out unsolicited emails.
