Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>THE Central Procurement Board of Namibia (CPBN) is cautioning the public against an advert circulating on social media inviting bidders for a bid titled \u201cProcurement for Construction of 1 500 houses outside Luderitz town on behalf of Luderitz Regional Council.<\/p>\n

Johanna Kambala (CPRP) spokesperson said that the advert requires bidders to pay an amount of N$15,000 for the bidding document into a certain bank account (this amount is beyond the maximum amount of N$6,000 to be charged by public entities for bidding documents as prescribed by the Public Procurement Regulations as amended, Regulation 33A).<\/p>\n

\u201cCPBN wishes to caution the public that the advert in question is a scam as no such bid was issued by CPBN in the market. Furthermore, the public is informed that all bids issued by CPBN are published on CPBN website (https:\/\/www.cpbn.com.na\/) or in newspapers, should they wish to verify the legitimacy of an advertised bid. The public is cautioned not to fall victim of such scams,\u201d Kambala concluded.<\/p>\n
