The City of Cape Town said it had received information about residents being offered cheaper units and that people claiming to be from the City had requested entrance into some homes to scan prepaid meters for a"rebate on electricity".
"Electricity sold doesn't work on the City's meters. Everyone loves a deal, especially in these tough economic times, but if the price of the electricity units seems too good to be true, it very likely is a scam," she said. According to the City, its Electricity Generation and Distribution Department will make an appointment with residents before visiting their homes.
