Surge in fake sites amid Black Friday frenzy

Several companies sounded the alarm on fraud and online scams for Black Friday.

This, after the South African Banking Information Centre revealed in their 2025 report that more than 1-billion rand was lost to online scams last year.

Fly SAfair warned customers of fake QR codes and nearly identical websites that were being generated by fraudsters.

Spokesperson Kirby Gordon "We've noted that imitation is one of the biggest risks in our space. So, if you see a great deal, it's always best to verify that you're getting it from the source."
