Cape Town - From post office employees to prisoners and foreign nationals, they have been illegally cashing in on the social grants amounting to millions of rand.
Zulu said in a written reply in Parliament from DA MP Bridget Masango that from last year they had picked up the fraudulent transactions in Sassa payments of social grants.“The grants were suspended, saving Sassa approximately R1.5 million per month,” said Zulu.
Even foreigners was getting this money. illegal foreigners were sold citizenship during mgigaba time at home afairs
Someone please call Cathy fast fast, she defended non SAns when one caller on SAfmTalkingPoint raised this on an open line UpdateAtNoon 🤐👀
If Ministers and senior ANC members can steal with impunity why cant they ? I mean its the culture of the ANC.
Is been happening for years you are very late
Fire them, there many South African in need of a job 💔
Have these people been charged with fraud?
Dusty51266077 Are they still employed ? Hopefully fired?
JimmyDouglason U-Sela uhlez' ekhona. Njalo nje. Nevertheless, goodness that they have been caught, & quickly, & their fraudulent activities stopped.
We are led by fools who comes here and complain about how people looting and no action I promise you no arrests will be made ancthieves
Another useless cadre
Which explains why the genuine unemployed have not received their R350 unemployment grant since the start! Disgraceful!
In Kimberly, some pensioners went for 3 months without pension. They were told 'if you open fraud cases, your pension will be suspended until the fraud case is concluded' SASSA & Post Bank 🧐 Obviously the victims won't risk their pension. This rot must be eliminated
Hence the need to audit lifestyles of public servants
The reality is that the systems employed by Government are deficient in preventing payments to non-qualifying recipients. Ginger speaks about cases identified by AGSA but has the department improved the control environment to prevent further abuse of the system?
No control you are celebrate ministerial position is for wages
As long as u people voting for myanc looters,ull always cry change ur vote ,Eff is there to fight for u ,vote for Eff thn we will getrid of this rotten potatoes,hei bathong tlogelang gorata dikhipha txediyelow txako marabastad
Repeat after me: Post office is white owned! After the removal of President Zuma government withdrew its contract from SASSA and place it under Post Office.
This is the result of hiring BBEEE
...and some people who deserve the grant are often excluded

Let them Pay Back The Money!!! Pay Back The people's Money!! SIU in their faces Yes
It's a free for all.
That's not enough foreigners are still chowing sassa grants, especially Zimbabweans, Mozambiques and Lesotho nationals
This is theft and fraud at its extent. Stealing from the poor people and they even robbed the blinds. The law must take its course 😍 SHAME on them
She must step aside she's incompetent
And then they don’t even do the jobs they have. Useless morons.
I hate the person who perpetuated this culture of corruption in SA
🙄🙄🙄not again
Arrest them and take back the money.
I always knew it. I mean I saw how the system was running. This new system of social destress is absolutely good for lazy South Africans
Sanebutnot Yes Lindiwe thanks to YOUR incompetence👹
You are not ashamed to be this incompetent, you should be the gaurd of our purse but it doesnt hurt you to see millions being stolen in your hands. Could have it been other countries you would have to pay it back yourself.
MANchabeleng No surprises here. Corruption & fraud is our daily bread.
It's because 'they are struggling to make ends meet' as well🤷🏿♂️
Should we clap hands or not
May God moer the hell out of them 😡
🤣🤣🤣🤣
So?
uNokwandaLo The bare minimum guys. That's all we ask for.😕🤦🏾♂️
They learned from their political leadership especially from member of cabinet channeling money and tenders to theirs kids and grandchildren
Those must be the group that gets retrenched. You don't have to look far
Ci ci ci
Those people should be dismissed.
Alive with possibilities. Just an ordinary day in SA
Another way for them to keep voting for anc
This headlines remind me of that of public works headlines were more than 100 000 workers, working at Public Works full time workers and still do business and get tenders from public works. And nothing has been done to this day...
WTF MINISTER do you know what you are doing or is the money you earn in your head and not your responsibility
They must make sure they fire these crooks before they close post offices
Mxim
Wow, now they sit with no jobs, and maybe in orange overalls. To take what not belong to you, comes back to bite you. Karma is a ugly thing
FEGEN Time to take out the trash. ANCisTRASH
It’s not just stopping the payments . It is the firing of these thieves and criminally charging every single one . This is how you set an example to the thugs . Jail time
South African Post Office employees defrauding Sassa by receiving social grants. These employees must pay back the State money. 105 prisoners must be charged for receiving the money that they're not entitled to.
What nonsense is this?
PhahlamohlakaM Not surprising at all
FOOL
They foresaw the future of them being unemployed. What's wrong with countering your ugly future. Their prophetic instincts needs applause.
Yet they will not be arrested.
Sixty something years old magogo,when are these people are going to stay home, opened space for young generation
Starts from the source. SASSA corruption.
I am shocked😱😱😱
What credentials does she have to be holding this position?
criminal scum all of them.
Why are 4700 foreign nationals getting grant from South Africa? Are they not working? What the fuck are they doing here if they not working? Clean up this shit man. Seriously!
Scary but why not dealing with them immediately?
I don't know why Maybe I need help But I despise this woman so much
VusiSambo Post Office tellers make around R6,100. I'm sure those delivering letters of Bicycles earn even less. They are clearly doing this out of need & you should be more concerned with paying them better.
Dear tito_mboweni c/o govy We can do away with grants. Only people who should receive assistance are the elderly and the disabled. The rest able bodied can volunteer to clean the streets & get paid per full bag of litter collected.
Where are control measures. You even pay the deceased...whatca shame while workers in your SOEs go on without salaries
😡😠🤬👿
It’s more than 1 768, she must not be lazy to conduct investigations, she must investigate further
Ao banna
Ask yourself how?please tell us more about your corruption please
Absolutely ⭕management. As with everything else. Is it an aversion with this anc government. Do they think management just happens?
HOW ...? This minister is a cabbage!! WTF!
Lungah__ Stupid ANC government nxaa dis news makes me angry and stressed
SiyaMiti_the1st 1768 new vacancies at post office
While many citizens that really needed it went without. .. truly unreal... about how...they cannot get simple things right..😡
Simple solution: Check the bloody UIF database against the geant database?! How f*kn stupid can you possibly be
When you have a leader who's not transparent...
Jirre Houkoppe is fooking usless!!!
Adam_Siyanda Everybody's eating right
That's because these ANC idiots are not doing their job.
Disappointed that our government systems are not linked, yet banks are linked to home affairs....one wonders who own or who is the custodian of our government systems
When post office collapse..
HadebeM2 There needs to be a full audit of every grant paid. The people who need the grant the most could be getting more if all the fraudulent grants were stopped!
Just stand at any atm pension day and see how many cards some people have
BetweenyouI
Can we shut the country down for a reboot 😭
3,341520.00 has been corrupted how sad.
good for them
You guys can’t run the country.. it’s over concede defeat and hand over the power to another political party
Someone and others they were sleeping on duty, yet some of our fellow South African brothers and sisters they were taken from pillar to post just to get their penny R350, till to date they have'nt received that money Minister LindiweZulu6
Reason: Outdated technology and processes managed by morons. Period.
We should be happy that they will recoup the funds forgetting that scarce resources will now be used. Wonder what the CR17 praise singers will say this is happening under his watch.
But foreigners qualify for the R350 grant it’s a fact
That's one department which just keeps failing and it's always headed by women. It's about time it gets headed by a man.
Whaaaaat
How many foreigners from Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Mozambique, Swaziland and others who are also getting Social grants so far?
Nothing suprising... tell us somethimg new. Satafrika!
Nothing surprising here... honestly.
You joking right?
Sassa will have to investigate further and its shows this was an inside job. How can they get hold of those cards if they were scanned and verified before been issued. It starts from Home Affairs, then Sassa it's a syndicate used government employees and foreigners
mmodiba10 Compared to the billions you guys are stealing and sharing in parliament that change stop with petty gossip and talk about real crime in that syndicate in parly .
mmodiba10
Are these 1 768 employees PostofficeSa fired for their fraudulent activities of claiming social grants whilst being permanently employed, or are still in full time emplor,or suspended on full pay? Was the system manipulated to benefit these crooks, and who was the mastermind?
What exactly is ginger saying? The database of government staff (incl. agencies) and that of SASSA recipients are not matched? Is that not a basic issue for state and SOE technology teams to check regularly? Just how much double dipping is there? Why do we need the government?🤷🏿
Such is the picture of failure. To continue like this is to send SA out of history
This news irritates the crap out of many South Africans.
ANC stupid government should ask DA to assist them. So much money lost....
😂😂😂😂 ' New Dawn'
