Cheerfulbabe is she an Asian girl? Have seen one called Cheerfulbae wearing purple dress
Oh that Asian girl in the car right? She's real but didn't click.

The Cheerfulbabe scammer is Caucasian, I blocked her on SA so I can't see her anymore. Said she lives in Shanes Park, I had no idea where that is. It's past Marsden Park but I think it's developing with no real residential areas.

Well you set up PAY ID with your bank, you can't use a false name, you can use first initial and last name.

Truecaller is another great tool to find people's names by phone number. How it works; once you install it on your phone, it uploads your contacts into a huge database. So it already has millions of people's contacts in the database. So if someone calls you and they're in the Truecaller database, you will see their name. Works great for blocking known scammers but you have to subscribe and pay a fee for full functionality.Screenshot_20220214-162726.jpg
