The National Consumer Commission (NCC) has added 20 additional suppliers to the list of 93 untraceable suppliers, as previously reported. The newly identified suppliers are based in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, and the Western Cape, with some operating entirely online, making it even harder for consumers and authorities to track them.
These suppliers operate across various industries, including auto parts, furniture, renewable energy, car dealerships, auto insurance, marketing and advertising, tobacco products, interior design, clothing, construction and truck repair services. The NCC’s preliminary assessment indicates that the modus operandi of these suppliers is to accept orders and payments but fail to deliver, then disappear or shut down their websites or change their known addresses without notice.
The NCC warns consumers to exercise extra caution when dealing with these suppliers, as they may lose their hard-earned cash. Consumers are further encouraged to verify suppliers before making payments, be cautious of deals that seem too good to be true and report any suspicious activity.
Suppliers of goods and services are reminded to comply with the provisions of the Consumer Protection Act (CPA) by providing accurate information, including physical address and contact details.
NB: Suppliers who feel that they have been added on the list erroneously must contact the NCC at 012 065 1940
