The University of Pretoria’s (UP) Department of Security Services has received several reports of incidents involving two African males dressed in HP apparel (brown dustcoats branded with the words “HP Partner”) who arrive at UP offices pretending to be from the HP company and claiming that they have come to replace expired cartridges. 

After removing the cartridges, they never return to replace them. One man is tall and slender, and the other is short and hefty. The UP community is being asked to be alert and report the matter to Security Services if these two males approach them or attempt to enter their building.
