South African KPMG Employee Goes Viral Over ‘Rapture’ Email

by Zaghrah Anthony

A seemingly ordinary day at KPMG South Africa took an unusual turn last week when junior accountant Mahlatse Letoka sent a mass internal email predicting an “imminent Rapture” in late September. What made the email stand out wasn’t just its apocalyptic warning, it included a 173-page attachment detailing her predictions, quickly sparking global attention.

Letoka, a former actress known for her role on Generations: The Legacy, has also been vocal about her religious beliefs on TikTok, where she shares visions she claims are divinely inspired.

apparently, some zealot at KPMG’s S/Africa office went off the rails and sent this company wide email 2 days ago 😂😂 pic.twitter.com/il63d2bOpP

The Content of the Email

In her email, Letoka urged colleagues to download her detailed PDF immediately, warning of catastrophic events tied to Biblical prophecy. Among her claims:

  • A warning that “World War 3 is coming” and the global economy is on the brink of collapse.

  • Predictions that New York may experience major devastation first.

  • That Christians “ready and filled with the Holy Spirit” could be taken in the Rapture on 23–24 September 2025, coinciding with the Feast of Trumpets.

She concluded with a note of personal conviction, stating she would rather face termination than remain silent while her colleagues were unprepared.

KPMG Responds

The multinational professional services firm confirmed the email was sent without authorization and acted swiftly to address the situation.

“KPMG in South Africa is aware of an unauthorised internal email that was circulated and has taken immediate steps to address the matter,” the company said. “The content does not reflect the firm’s values. We remain committed to fostering a respectful and inclusive workplace for all.”

KPMG also emphasized its rejection of discrimination in any form, including Islamophobia, clarifying that Letoka’s email was entirely her personal view.

Social Media Reacts

Unsurprisingly, Letoka’s email quickly went viral on social media. TikTok users and Twitter followers shared screenshots and commented on the unusual nature of the mass email. Many were baffled that a professional services firm received such a dramatic warning from a junior employee.

On her TikTok account, Letoka continued to discuss the Rapture, referencing recent astronomical events like the Blood Moon lunar eclipse, which she said was connected to her visions. She advised her followers not to dismiss the possibility of the event occurring soon.

“God did not tell me if it will be in September 2025. But I am saying that it is very, very possible. Let us not rule out the possibility. If you are wise, you would not rule out the possibility,” she captioned one video.

Her TikTok biography also includes a link to the 173-page document she shared with KPMG colleagues, making her predictions accessible to a wider audience.

@mahlatse.letoka Dear people of God. Rapture is imminent. God did not tell me if it will be in September 2025 but I am saying that it is very very possible. Let us not rule out the possibility. If you are wise, you would not rule out the possibility. Stop listening to people who are trying to kill your confidence about the rapture. Please be ready. Test the spirits. Ask for confirmations from Jesus Christ Himself. Your pastor is not your confirmation, ask Jesus to show you straight up. #rapture #Jesusiscomingsoon #Jesus #christianity #jesusislord ♬ original sound – Mahlatse Letoka

From Office Email to Viral Sensation

The incident has sparked a discussion about corporate culture and personal beliefs intersecting in the workplace. While Letoka’s faith is personal, the global email highlighted the challenges companies face when employees share controversial or unvetted content internally.

For Mahlatse Letoka, the viral attention may be a mix of notoriety and validation. For KPMG and its global staff, it is a reminder of the importance of internal communication protocols and the potential consequences of an unexpected mass email.

Whether one views her warnings as a religious call to action or a dramatic office blunder, the story underscores how quickly messages can go viral in today’s digital and corporate world.
