To all suppliers and potential suppliers of goods to the Government Printing Works The Government Printing Works would like to warn members of the public against an organised syndicate(s) scamming unsuspecting members of the public and claiming to act on behalf of the Government Printing Works. One of the ways in which the syndicate operates is by requesting quotations for various goods and services on a quotation form with the logo of the Government Printing Works. Once the official order is placed the syndicate requesting upfront payment before delivery will take place. Once the upfront payment is done the syndicate do not deliver the goods and service provider then expect payment from Government Printing Works. Government Printing Works condemns such illegal activities and encourages service providers to confirm the legitimacy of purchase orders with GPW SCM, prior to processing and delivery of goods. To confirm the legitimacy of purchase orders, please contact: Renny Chetty [email protected] (012) 748-6375 Anna-Marie du Toit [email protected] (012) 748-6292 Siraj Rizvi [email protected] (012) 748-6380 This gazette is also available free online at www.gpwonline.co.za STAATSKOERANT, 15 JULIE 2016 No.
