**** running at your Woodmead shop
<p>This is to inform you of a **** that is being run inside your shop that I experienced today.</p> <p> </p> <p>While I was at your shop today I was approached by a man in your shop who identified himself as Pontso. He told me that he was a driver for your deliveries.</p> <p> </p> <p>He gave me the following cell number (073 ********** )</p> <p> </p> <p>He told me that while your goods were very expensive there was a way to get repossessed goods from your warehouse cheaply.</p> <p> </p> <p>He later called me and arranged for me to meet with another guy who called himself Mike (he was wearing your store uniform).</p> <p> </p> <p>Mike then explained to me that everything was above bored and they had signed it off with an Indian gentleman they work for called Abdul at your store.</p> <p> </p> <p>This Mike then explained to me that when people make lay-buys at your store, they sometimes don’t pay within the 90 days stipulated which then leads to them forfeiting the money and the goods taken back. He then said that they had an arrangement that someone else like me could then come and pay the difference for the goods and allowed to take them.</p> <p> </p> <p>Against my better judgement I went along with this and gave them an amount of R 9 800 which was to be used to pay for this difference and I would get a sound bar and tv which had been taken back from a client who hadn’t paid-off their lay-buy.</p> <p> </p> <p>This process was also demonstrated to me with another guy who was sold 2 cell phones while I was there at the same time. I suspect this was obviously a lie to get me to agree to all this.</p> <p> </p> <p>I gave them the money and they said they were going to the storage to finalise everything.</p> <p> </p> <p>At this point I lost all contact with them and the cellphone number was disconnected.</p> <p> </p> <p>I am informing you of this so that you may deal with this if indeed these people work at your store, or at least put measures in places so that other people who come to shop at your store do not get ****med in a similar way.</p>
