42,000 units of KW300H FS77 Card Holders

PUBLIC NOTICE: Suspected Procurement RFQ – 42,000 Card Holders

Suppliers and businesses are advised to verify an email requesting a quotation for the supply and delivery of 42,000 units of KW300H FS77 Card Holders. The message claims to originate from the Department of Correctional Services and lists the delivery location as Leeuwkop Management Area, Main Road Kyalami, Sunninghill, Johannesburg.

The communication requests suppliers to submit quotations via email to Aobakwe.Pule@dcs.gov.za and includes contact details for Aobakwe Pule with both telephone and mobile numbers. The email also requires suppliers to submit multiple supporting documents along with the quotation.

The requested documentation includes:

• Price quotation for the card holders

• Company registration documents

• Tax Clearance Certificate

• Bank confirmation letter

• BBBEE certificate or sworn affidavit

• ID copy of the company director

• CSD registration report

While these documents are often required during legitimate procurement processes, suppliers should verify the authenticity of the request before submitting any sensitive information. Unsolicited requests distributed by email should be confirmed through official departmental procurement channels or recognized government tender platforms.

Businesses are advised not to open attachments or share confidential company information until the RFQ has been verified through official sources. Maintaining proper verification procedures helps protect companies from procurement-related fraud and misuse of corporate documentation.
