Poll: Christchurch's Wizard says post-quake CBD is avoided by locals - do you agree?

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Post-quake Christchurch is a soulless city of steel and glass with its “sacred cycle lanes” contributing to the eyesore of the central city, says the Wizard.

Do you agree? Why, why not?

The interview was for part two of Munted - a seven-part video series that tells the story of the Christchurch earthquakes. Click the link below to watch all seven episodes.

Warnings about scams

The Team from New Zealand Police

This Fraud Awareness Week, we’re reminding everyone to stay sharp and look out for the warning signs of scams to stop them before they start.

Here’s what to watch out for:
🔍 Unrealistic offers or promises of easy money that are too good to be true
🔍 Pressure tactics: Scammers may rush or threaten you to act immediately.
🔍 Requests for personal info: Be cautious if you’re asked for bank details, passwords, or sensitive information.
🔍 Unusual payment methods like gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers.
🔍 Unverified contacts: Emails, calls, or messages from unknown or suspicious sources.

How to protect yourself:
✅ Stop and think before sharing personal details or making payments.
✅ Don't click on any links until you know that it is safe.
✅ Verify the source: Contact the organisation directly using official channels.
✅ If something’s not right, it's OK to hang up, walk away, ignore it and move on.

If you wish to report a scam, contact Police on 105 or report it online via 105.police.govt.nz/use-105.
