Yeah, that can be quite painful.

Is there anything the bank can do to retrieve your money if you have made an EFT payment but have not received the goods?

Asking for a friend?

Yes there is, bank dependent, you have 30 days to request a reversal but for one thing, the account on the other side needs to have the funds. Contact your bank and request the reversal form. The bank of course doesn't do this for free

Asking for myself but nothing to do with the bike hub, I bought some parts for a motorbike from a guy that was recommended by many people.

P.s. we are both with FNB

Just got a message from this guy too.. He certainly has a good work ethic

Simple scripting with automation to start with. They poll the classified websites and search for keywords. Automate responses based on this criteria. Only when people start responding do they need to start interacting.

Just got a Wa from him now too, it screamed scam even before true caller flagged it as fraudster.

 

Like really now, what the eff is the logic in sending a WhatsApp to tell me to email you, that is like going ass backwards from ass backwards. That's the level of stupidity that gets you fired from government for Petes sake.

 

Anyway, emailed him from one of my throw away addresses because you know, screwing with scammers is fun.
