Crooks are using sneaky digital tricks to steal money from South African travelers this December. They send fake SMS messages pretending to be official traffic fines, making people panic and pay up quickly. These new ‘digital hijackers’ create fake websites that look real, asking for bank details. To stay safe, always check the sender, look for weird links or bad grammar, and never pay instantly to a private account. Stay smart, and your holiday money will be safe for fun things!
