A security company offering debt-collecting services is accused of attempting to intimidate a businessman to pay a ‘cancellation fee’.
Amid increasing rumours of mafia-style security enforcers trying to get a foothold in Middelburg, a businessman from the Mpumalanga town decided to speak out to establish if his business is the only one being targeted and to warn others who might fall prey to the same group.
The business card identifies the company as Global Risk Security Services. It shows a Pretoria address, lists two names and contact numbers, and gives a Gmail email address. Despite only two names appearing on the card, the photo used depicts three people. The businessman says he did not overthink it because he knew it was a false allegation. He says they were being opportunistic.
One then walked to the office and kicked open the door, finding only his secretary inside. The secretary, whose name is also being withheld for security reasons, says she kept her cool and continued focusing on her work, ignoring the man. He would later see that the men sent him a video with no sound of how they entered his premises and his office.@middelburgobserverA security company offering debt-collecting services is accused of attempting to intimidate a Middelburg businessman to pay a ‘cancellation fee’.Hans du Preez from Titon says he called the men to find out what the issue was and was met with threats.
