Over the past few weeks, the City said suspects tried to scam businesses out of money by posing as health officials and indicating they could issue health-related approvals for a fee.

Any applications that do require payment should only occur at a City cash office or via electronic funds transfers into the City’s bank account, details of which are available on the City’s website.

‘If anyone comes to your premises to conduct an inspection, it is always advised to check their credentials, but specifically if that individual requests direct payment or some other kind of favour or reward for services rendered,’ said Mayco Member for Community Services and Health Patricia van der Ross.
