An SMS message has been doing the rounds congratulating recipients that they have won R100 000, 00 (one hundred thousand) from Trudon Mobile.<\/p>\n
The SMS reads: “Congratulations on winning this week’s Trudon Mobile competition. To claim your prize of R100 000, 00, kindly contact Johan on 078 381 1329 or telefax (011) 507 5752. Email: Trudonmobile@live.com”<\/p>\n
“This is a scam and Trudon has nothing to do with this so-called competition. We have taken a legal route on the matter and our attorneys are dealing with the issue,” says Lionel Smith, GM Marketing for Trudon, publishers of Yellow Pages and owners of Trudon Mobile.<\/p>\n
“Trudon advises anyone who receives such an SMS not to respond to it for the so-called Johan, requests that recipients sends him a copy of their identity document and banking details to claim the R100 000, 00,” Trudon said.<\/p>\n
