A MUST READ: I just received this...

"Help me report this page Shonie-M Skin Care and share this post for awareness!

Facebook online sales do not have a complaints office that’s why I am here!

The first question would be how did I get here?
Well I have been studying her ecommerce page closely for sometime and there were no bad reviews or anything on her page. That’s when I thought let me just support a black woman, and that persuaded my decision but little did I know I was dealing with someone who is so intentional about robbing people of their money and knew how to cover her tracks.

Long story cut short, I made a purchase of two Jeans at a price of R700 + R110 courier fee (R810) to this woman called -M Skin Care she blocked me and her other page would be Shonie Millions blocked as well. (Pictures provided)

The sale was made out of urgency were she kept on saying the supplier is closing and I should make an immediate payment because the store was closing. I cringed at that but I didn’t really read much to it because I was willing to make the purchase. I paid, then she advised that the delivery via paxi would take around 10 working days. I awaited until I could feel something was wrong as days were now passing by.

I made follow ups, and I remember at one instance when I enquired about the delivery and she said she was dealing with a lot of customers. She will check my order and come back to me, which she didn’t and I would go back to find what’s causing the delay. Until I studied the page again and I realized that this person pays people to react positively on her page so she can get customers that she would later scam. Whether or not she is a genuine seller it is not clear at this point, so if anyone feels the need to spend their hard earned money to buy a weave, skin care, sneakers, jeans or whatever. Do not do it!

Please share this and save someone from falling into the same trap. She’s so nonchalant about this, and God knows how many people have been robbed by this person. The future of small businesses will doomed because of such selfish and inconsiderate people like this girl Shonisani! I mean how will we trust genuine people who wants to make a living online when such happens. So disgusting honestly! Please share this post, so this Giyani Mafia can be exposed!"

An undercover operation to prevent, detect or investigate the commission of an offence was conducted after an entrapment permission was obtained from the Director of Public Prosecution.

The suspects were identified after a lengthy investigation involving the South African Police Service from Limpopo provincial detectives. The suspects are expected to appear in the Polokwane magistrate soon to face charges relating to defeating the ends of justice, extortion, and solicitation of bribes from motorists, bus driver operators, Malaishas travelling from other provinces through Limpopo province to Zimbabwe along N1 and alternative routes.
