Gogos report alleged funeral scam they've been paying for over 20 years

Kimberley - A case of fraud has been opened against a Pescodia woman who is accused of fraudulently acting as a funeral and life cover agent and has allegedly swindled two elderly women out of thousands of rand. The two women, aged 77 and 91, approached the DFA on Tuesday, saying that they wanted to expose the woman after they found out that she was not registered as a life and funeral cover agent.

However, after the two women approached Legal Aid South Africa, it was revealed that KGA Life Insurance had no record of any of the two women as clients, nor were any policies held with them. “We fear that our money will not be paid out after we pass away. We have already paid thousands of rand to the woman, but have no contract or any proof that we will receive our funerals or any other benefits that we are paying for. We are old and poor and worry what will happen after we die,” they said.
