IMPORTANT NOTICE - SCAM AUCTION WARNING
SAIA
Dear SAIA Member
It has come to our attention that there are some fraudulent Facebook pages impersonating Auction Businesses and advertising scam auctions on Facebook.
Unfortunately, there have been members of the public who have fallen victim to these scams.
Help us to prevent this from happening to others.
We urge all to please be vigilant and check that you are viewing registered auctioneer's pages and actual auctions.
SCAM AUCTIONS:
Rose-Innes - view scam
Claremont Auctions - view scam
Park Village Auctions - view scam
If you suspect any suspicious profiles or auctions as being a scam, you can do the following:
• Contact the particular Auctioneer to confirm the auction or asset/s advertised
• Confirm auction procedures with the Auction Company
• Check and confirm banking details with Auction Company
• Alert the auction company of the scam auction
• Contact SAIA so we can investigate and advise our members, public and stakeholders accordingly
We would like to request that our members share with us if they have had similar experiences so we can document these scams, share them with the public and expose these fraudsters.
