********* posing to be an official of the electricity department

A friend of mine, who is a pensioner and resides in Fish Hoek was conned into allowing an unauthorised official of the electricity department into his flat on Friday (27-10-2017). This ********* wore the correct uniform and produced documentation that indicated he was a meter reader. My friend was totally conned and obligingly informed the ********* of his ID number and details of his state pension. Once the ********* had read the electricity meter and had left the apartment, my friend noticed that his lap top had been ****** and the possibility of further ***** in regards his pension. The gut wrenching part of this story is that while the ********* was going about his crime my friend who only has partial vision was listening to a CD of bible verses. The CD was playing from a very old computer that doesn't work anymore, however, the only thing that works on the computer is the audio of the CD. My friend is a pensioner and simply cant afford to replace the lap top. Wouldn't it be fantastic if someone that reads this review donates a second hand lap top to my friend. My friend resides in Recreation Road Fish Hoek (Nieu Port flats).
