Sassa’s strong warning

Mpumalanga South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) wants to remind and assure beneficiaries that the gold payment card is still valid.

Agency spokesman Senzeni Ngubeni said: “Beneficiaries must not panic or succumb to the hijacking by scammers and circulating fake news that the card will expire in April 2023. Sassa is conveying a correct message that the payment gold card is still authentic and can be used either in Postbank, ATMs and merchants,” he said.

Ngubeni said the beneficiaries are encouraged to also provide their private bank accounts to Sassa as another option of safe easy payment.

“Sassa will in due course communicate changes if there are any. Fraudsters who pretend to be Sassa officials and target old-age people and people living with disabilities in their homes must be immediately reported to the local SAPS,” he said.

For more information, people could contact Sassa toll-free number 0800 60 10 11 or customer care help desk on 013 754 9428.
