The South African Revenue Services
officials together with the police conducted a search and seizure operation at
an office in Bushbuckridge on Thursday.
It was suspected that a group of
individuals were running a business posing as tax advisors to the members of
the public.
Sars Spokesperson Adrian Lackey said
the group would approach tax payers and ask them for a small service fee and
promise them a tax refund.
In exchange they would then claim up
to 30 percent of refunds that the tax payer would ultimately reclaim from
Sars.
Lackey said SARS foresee more arrested as the investigation continues.
