On 31/12/2018 my wife made the following joke post on Facebook:
Ons fireworks het nat gereën. Kan ek dit droogmaak in die oond? 😁😀

A person by the name of Marius Lacante, who calls himself "Head Operational Risk, Personal and Business Banking Credit, IT and Operational Shared Services @ Standard Bank" made the following reply to my wife:
Hoop dit blaas in jou fokken gesig op commin dwis (Translated: I hope it explodes in your face you common **bleep**)
He later deleted his posts after I confronted hem, but I still have all the screenshots.

 

Is this common practice for Standard Bank managers to talk to people like that in a public forum? I really thought they were held to a higher standard?

 

I would like to know where I can report this. 95% of the people on the post took it as a joke, but this one reply by Marius really stood out and my wife experienced it a very hurtful. 

 

Where can I report this?
