    We're aware of fraudulent emails impersonating Payfast by Network. These messages may request banking details, prompt you to click links, or claim a payment has been made. Stay vigilant: - Verify sender addresses (payfast.io, payfast.help, or network.global). - Never share sensitive information via email or SMS. - Be cautious of urgent requests or threats. - Confirm payments by logging into your Payfast account directly. - Watch for suspicious links, attachments, spelling, or grammar mistakes. If you're unsure, contact Payfast through our official support channels before taking action.
