Scam email obstensibly from NZTA
I have received a scam email that looked like it came from NZTA reminding me that my car needed to be registered. It didn’t name me, or my car and it had the wrong amount due ($74.95). It looked very legitimate on first viewing.
The email address (when it was extended) was in fact a Spark address.
It gave options to click on to renew, put on hold, unsubscribe and contact us.
I have notified NZTA, Spark and Netsafe.
If you get it, put it straight into your junk mail and block the sender, if you can.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
