CAUTION: Fraudster masquerading as Leapfrog Property Agent on online platforms

Category Advice

Dear Valued Clients

It has come to our attention that a sophisticated online scammer is masquerading as a Leapfrog Property agent. 

The scammer is sending false documentation to clients and, most concerningly, requesting payments be made into a fake bank account.  

The scammer is using the name "Ian Stoffberg" as an alias. This Ian Stoffberg is in no way linked to the "real" Leapfrog Property agent Ian Stoffberg, who works in the Rustenburg area. 

The matter has been reported to SAPS and our attorneys have been briefed to take any and all steps required to stop this fraudulent activity and apprehend the perpetrator as soon as possible. 

This is a matter that the management of the Leapfrog Property Group regard in a very serious light and we are committed to getting to the bottom of this as soon as possible. 

We thank our loyal clients for their ongoing support. At this time we can only request extra vigilance and recommend that extra care is taken with any property-related transactions. 

Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns. 

We trust this matter will be speedily resolved and the perpetrator brought to book. 

Thank you,

Bruce Swain

Leapfrog Property Group CEO
