South Africa’s NGB warns operators of people impersonating its inspectors
South Africa’s National Gambling Board warned operators and provincial licensing authorities about individuals reportedly posing as NGB employees in North-West Province and Centurion, Gauteng. The suspects allegedly claimed to be conducting inspections and demanded money; the NGB said only duly appointed inspectors may carry out its inspection and enforcement functions.
Operators risk fraudulent payment demands from people falsely claiming authority to inspect gambling establishments.
