11: I received a call at my office from a man calling himself Dr Kobus Botha. 2: He then began talking about his trucks being overloaded and that he was on Bottelary Road (at the beginning of the Stellenbosch Wine Route). 3: He said he has to give away a lot of meat due to his trucks being overloaded. 4: The entire telephone conversation was in Afrikaans. He also said that he didn't want to give the meat to his workers, but that he rather wanted to give it to people who also spoke Afrikaans. 5: He then asked me to take down his number in the event he runs out of airtime, so that I can call him back for directions to collect the meat at Mooiplaas on Bottelary Road. The call then ended abruptly. 6: I immediately searched his name and cell number on the internet and found a few articles reporting him as a scammer. 7: Reports go back as far as 2010 and possibly even further back. 8: All reports claim the he offers meat to NGO's. He then asks for airtime vouchers for the truck drivers claiming that he cannot go buy any as he has to stand by the trucks until they leave. He promises to pay the money back when the meat is collected. When people arrive at the provided address and find nobody there, they call him and get no answer. If the targeted people say that they cannot buy all the vouchers which he requests, he apparently becomes aggressive and rude and says that they can longer have the meat.....not that there ever was any meat to begin with. 9: A few reports say that the calls could be traced from coming inside a prison. 10: Other names mentioned to be used by this person is Johan Botha Kobus Roos Dr Botha Dr Jannie Pretorius Dr Hennie Botha Kallie Viljoen Dr Kobus Viljoen Kobus Roets Alwyn Burge Danie Van Der Walt Loodt Strydom Leon Scheepers Herman Fourie Numbers used: 076 561 2788 064 986 6983 076 553 5041 060 711 8563 076 668 8901 064 826 7501 082 705 4052 076 868 8302 078 256 5123 063 643 4005 064 732 8727 072 773 7294 076 549 9746 066 391 4595 079 948 7188 076 578 9640 079 453 7721 071 494 0791 I'm sure there is probably more.
