PROJECT: PERSON OF INTEREST - ANDREW SAREL SMITH

YOU MAY SHARE THIS PUBLIC DOCUMENT

 

Andrew Sarel Smith, aged 64, is a man with a questionable track record. 

His current residential address is 1 Protea Street, Doringkloof, Centurion.


He owns several companies, including Medical 4 U, Doctor 4 U Managers, Sanitizer 4 U, and Produce 4 U. Recently, he has portrayed himself as a broker dealing in raw materials from Africa to Dubai.


However, beneath this façade lies a pattern of deceit and financial manipulation that has left many victims in its wake.

 
 

OUR CASE:

  • In May 2019, our client was introduced to Smith and was persuaded to invest in a company called BCFS, with the promise of doubling their investment in four years.

  • On 2 August 2019, the client signed investment documents and transferred R40,000.00 into an account under the name Global Merchant Fina, with Smith promising to add R10,000.00 of his own money.

  • However, after the money was transferred, Smith became increasingly elusive.

  • In August 2023, Smith unilaterally extended the investment term to five years without prior notice.

  • By December 2023, our client contacted BCFS, only to discover that the company had no record of their investment.

  • Smith then claimed the funds were with another company, Montagu, but failed to attend a meeting to explain the situation.

 

DECEPTION AND FALSE PROMISES:

  • Smith’s deceit extends beyond this investment.

  • He has rebranded an R1.5 million transaction as a loan to avoid fraud charges despite it being a signed investment contract.

  • Additionally, Smith misused funds meant for building supplies, as he admitted in a WhatsApp message.

  • He has also cited SARS (South African Revenue Service) as an excuse for not releasing funds from a supposed gold purchase.

  • His frequent references to legal and financial complications, including a dubious High Court intervention, raise serious doubts about his integrity.

 

Andrew Sarel Smith’s activities are a stark reminder of the need for caution in financial dealings.

Specialised Security Services is dedicated to exposing fraudsters like Smith and protecting the public.

If you have any information regarding his activities, please contact us immediately.

and urging victims to come forward.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.


STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
