Relaxation pool Sylvester Chauke
⚠️ Community Alert: Pool & Lapa Scam ⚠️

Please be aware of a group scamming homeowners out of thousands of Rands by pretending to install swimming pools and lapas.

The team consists of about 8 people, led by a man who introduces himself as Mr. Steve Chauke (also known as Sylvester).

He drives a vehicle with registration number FM45WTGP.

Six workers begin digging and pouring concrete, but once you’ve paid a large amount, they disappear and never return.

They provide false references to appear trustworthy.

This scam operation has used several company names:

Relaxcation Pools & Lapas

Craig Infinity Marbelite Pools (current name)

JABU Pools & Lapas (previous name) big Scammer...
