*****sters

I intended to buy a second-hand imported Toyota engine from Bomax Auto, located at 4 Industria Road, Mansfield, Cape Town, company registration number ***, VAT number ***. Their contact details include the email *** and website bomaxauto.co.za. However, they falsified invoices and took full payment without delivering the engine. The person I dealt with, who calls himself Maliq, uses the WhatsApp Business number +***2.

Bomax Auto appears to be working with an individual named Hamilton from a *****ulent company impersonating the legitimate Skyjet Clearance/Expresslane. This **** has cost me R105,748 in total, with R36,750 paid for the engine and gearbox to Bomax Auto and R68,998 to Skyjet Clearance/Expresslane for supposed refundable fees and other fabricated charges.

Skyjet Expresslane uses a **** tracking website, globaljetclearance.com, which mimics a legitimate tracking service, making it seem as if a shipment is real. Hamilton’s contact number is +***9, also a WhatsApp Business account. They use mainstream bank accounts for their *****ulent activities, raising concerns about the financial institutions accommodating these ********s:

SKYJET EXLRESSLANE uses these two accounts: Bank: African Bank; Skyjet Lane; b.code 430000; Account ***, Country South Africa

And another for the apparent "Permits Account":

Bank: Standard Bank, Skyjet Permit, b.code 051001, Account ***, ***.

Bomax Auto uses: Standard Bank, Bomax Auto Pty Ltd, ***, 051001, reference 1KZ-TE.
