SACE Warning: Beware of Fraudulent Agents Offering Fake Registrations
SACE warns educators about fraudulent agents offering fake registration services. Beware of scams promising quick turnaround times. Council urges reporting any suspicious activities to fraudalert@sace.org.za for swift action.

SACE WARNS AGAINST BOGUS AGENTS
 
Dear Valued Educators
 
SACE has become aware of the ongoing fraudulent activities (SACE registration) done by bogus agents claiming to be “SACE Agents”. These bogus agents (fraudsters) are offering to assist educators with the SACE application processes and charging them an extra fee promising a quick turnaround period.

There is a person calling herself Pretty on facebook claiming to assist applicants with the SACE
registration. This person has created a fake facebook page in the name of SACE. She has even gone to the extent of issuing applicants with fake SACE registration certificates and letters.  

Council wishes to caution those who continue to use the services of agents to apply for SACE registration to refrain from doing so, as any person caught with a fraudulent SACE Certificate/ letter will face consequences including Council taking legal actions against them, blacklisting and being removed from the teaching roll.

Council is working very close with  relevant authorities to address this matter of self-appointed SACE agents, in order to stop these ongoing fraudulent activities.
 
SACE is therefore requesting anyone who is aware of such activities to immediately report to the SACE offices using the following email address : fraudalert@sace.org.za (Please do not send application forms and registration queries to this email when  reporting any suspicions activities, please be reminded to include the following information– What happened /  When / by Who).
