Hi there,

I see that you haven't made a payment for the question, but I'm going to assist you a little. If you want to ask a follow-up question, please make the required payment, even if it is R150 or R200.

You need to follow up with SAPS about your case, because they are able to investigate things like this and request information from the bank as to what happened to the money. 

Att. Patrick
