A Gauteng attorney has been found liable to pay his clients R1.4 million after he transferred their money to a fraudster’s account.
Hartog appealed this. But Judge Rean Strydom, with Judge Majake Mabesele and acting Judge Johannes Strijdom concurring, said Hartog had initiated correspondence with the clients via email and they had responded using the"same means". "The fraudster must have become aware of an imminent transfer of a substantial amount of money … further he must have obtained the email addresses of Patrick and Hartog," the judge said.
It was Hartog who had invited his clients to send instructions and bank details. This invitation was done by email and there was a response to this email using the same means, said Judge Strydom.
