THE CASE:
Mr. Christopher Newcombe Bond allegedly operates as a fraudulent businessman, using complex contracts and false business premises to lend legitimacy to schemes in which he accepts significant payments for goods and services that he fails to deliver.
CASE 1: ALLEGED BUSINESS LOAN
On 4 April 2025, R30,000.00 was lent to Mr. Newcombe Bond in good faith, with a promise of repayment.
Despite repeated follow-ups and an arrangement via SSS investigator Mr. Reinier van Dijk, Mr. Newcombe Bond failed to return the funds.
WhatsApp conversations and proof of payment evidence confirm the fraudulent conduct.
CASE 2: GOODS NOT DELIVERED
Under a formal Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA No: GX/AC/CrO2/CONCENTRATE/1YRS/RSA/DAP/001), Mr. Newcombe Bond’s company, Assegai Capital (Pty) Ltd, accepted a R140,000.00 holding deposit on 24 February 2025.
Assegai Capital (Pty) Ltd was deregistered on 14 February 2025, ten days prior to receiving the funds, rendering the agreement unlawful.
An additional R42,949.05 was paid to Assegai Utilities (Pty) Ltd on 3 February 2025, the company closed on 10 February 2025.
Total loss in this case: R182,949.05, with no goods delivered despite contractual promises of 2,000 metric tons of Chrome Concentrate per month.
TOTAL CONFIRMED LOSSES:
Across both cases investigated by SSS: R212,949.05 in confirmed, undelivered payments.
IMPACT AND SIGNIFICANCE:
This case highlights how sophisticated fraud schemes exploit trust and corporate structures to deceive victims.
SSS urges businesses and individuals to conduct thorough due diligence before entering into any financial agreement.

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.
