Cape Town’s Financial Department is urging citizens to exercise vigilance and report suspicious activity to the South African Police Service (SAPS) and the City to combat wrongdoers. A recent incident involving fraudsters posing as City officials highlights the importance of citizens verifying the credentials of visitors before allowing them entry. The City’s Help Desk can confirm the identity of staff members, and locals earning R7500 or less per month can apply for utility discounts on the City’s online platform or customer office. With collective efforts, Cape Town can remain a safe and prosperous city.
