Fraud Alert: Scam Website Impersonating Keringa

We have identified a fraudulent website attempting to impersonate Keringa and mislead customers into making payments for services that do not exist.

Fraudulent Website Identified

The website https://dogsofsa.co.za is not affiliated with Keringa and is part of an active scam. This site is using a misspelt variation of our name and imitating our services in order to deceive customers, particularly in relation to pet transport.

How the Scam Works

  1. Customers are contacted regarding pet transport arrangements.
  2. They are asked to make additional payments for “special travel crates” or equipment.
  3. Payment is requested urgently, often with promises of later reimbursement.
  4. Communication is done via unofficial email addresses such as Gmail accounts.

How to Verify You Are Dealing With Keringa

Keringa will never request unexpected or additional payments for crates or transport equipment after a booking has been confirmed.

All official communication from Keringa is conducted via email addresses ending in @keringa.co.za.

If you are ever unsure, please contact us directly using the details on our official website.

What To Do If You Have Been Contacted

If you have received communication from this fraudulent site or have been asked to make a payment, please contact Keringa immediately.

We can verify whether the communication is legitimate and advise on the next steps.

Action Being Taken

We are actively working with hosting providers, search engines, and relevant authorities to have this fraudulent website removed and to prevent further harm to customers.

This matter is being treated as a priority.
