Beware of bogus sellers - 24 Jan 2012

By Rod Baker, general manager: content

Beware of bogus sellers - Tue, 24 Jan 2012As always, we have a very mixed bag for you today, with the government issuing a warning regarding bogus sellers of land; as always, there is someone ready to cash in and take from the gullible and the needy. On an even sadder note, it is reported that floods in Mpumalanga are known to have claimed six lives. We at Bizcommunity.com extend our condolences to the families of the victims.

Then we have the mystery ship, which is apparently not much of a mystery after all; it seems to be very much a case of Ship? What ship? - and the minister is not happy, and we also have Pravin Gordhan accusing the Limpopo provincial government of sabotaging service delivery in the province.

Oh, and in passing, the ANCYL wants, among other things, a "heavy tax" on those rich people who flash their wealth around. So, from now on, keep that R250 000 Breitling watch covered! OK?

Tolls unfair? No way! Well, so says Sanral, which on the upside is to be bailed out by the government, but on the downside is facing a double whammy from FF+ and the DA over trying to advertise and sell toll tags and allegedly setting up illegal roadblocks.
