New SMS Scam doing it's rounds - Appointment Letter

[ezras]

Been spammed on all our email accounts with the new email scam. Seems like they using different gmail accounts and company names on it.

Subject: Appointment Letter

Good day,

We received your request regarding your appointment letter and we’re glad tell you that it has been finalized with the employers and the agency.

The appointment letter will include the starting date, salaries and more information about the company / employers.

However, due to expenses we face, we will require an admin / paperwork fee of R30 to be paid not later than 11.30 am on the 30th July 2016.

The way to pay for the admin fee is an easy and a simple one as you don't need to queue at the bank or pay bank charges.

Simply load R30 on your cell phone and sms the word ‘ADMIN’ followed by your full names to 42646. SMS costs R30.

Once we receive it, we will then forward your appointment letter.

No offense but you obviously have a customer with a charge premium service loaded. If I was you I'd suspend their account immediately and hold the funds, last I recall it took about 7 days for funds to clear for WASPs.
