Two suspects aged 36 and 47 will appear in the Port Alfred Magistrates court this week following their arrest on the weekend.
It is alleged that the duo placed an order for a consignment of goods valued at over R17 600 on Friday.
The goods were collected the same afternoon by the suspects.
The payment was made via the internet and the owner received a proof of payment with a bank letterhead.
A repeat order was them placed the same day for collection on Saturday.
Captain Mali Govender says the owner then went to the bank to confirm the payment and was advised that the account and reference numbers do not exist and that he had been scammed and defrauded.
The police were alerted and they were able to arrest the duo before they left Port Alfred.
They have been linked to another similar case.
