Dinner is Served
Chicken Curry Chip Cheese and Chilli
Rotis Bigger than a small country.

In the middle of all this my bank account got cleaned out due to a series of fast online fraudulent transactions. Dozens of transactions in a 10 minute period.
Strangely enough not a single authentication or approval request came to my phone/ banking app.
But the messages showing the debits were all streaming in. So annoyed! And so broke now while they take their sweet time investigating :-(

Sorry to hear that. The very same thing happened to me a few years ago where I received more than 10 notifications in less than 5 minutes by the time I managed to freeze my credit card more than 6.5K were debited from my account. I made the most of entering my Credit Card details on Google Playstore! Luckily my bank reversed the transactions immediately.
I was actually victim to credit card scammers several times.... the biggest amount was a bit less than 30k. I was sitting in a meeting when I received the bank SMS saying that I just paid a 30k bill in some Cigar lounge more than 300Km away! Froze my credit card and phoned the place to make a query. The manager said they were having a crazy busy day with year end functions and large groups and they don’t even have CCTV. The transaction was obviously reversed too but my banker made sure to call me every time I made an online purchase for the next few months :p
From my side I decided to only use PayPal or instant EFT from there on!

Lifting of alcohol ban floods South African hospitals with trauma cases
Bradley Prior7 June 2020
The Sunday Times reports that the reopening of alcohol sales has placed a significant strain on hospital emergency rooms.
Level 3 of the lockdown began on 1 June and signalled the deregulation of alcohol sales.
However, the resulting increase in alcohol-related injuries is taking up beds that are intended for COVID-19 patients.
According to SARS Commissioner Edward Kieswetter, South Africa lost between R14 billion and R15 billion in taxes because of the bans on alcohol and cigarette sales.
