Poll: Can you spot a scam?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We used to just be wary of clicking links online, and then came the deceptive phone calls, followed by text messages that look to be from a known company.

The latest statistics from Cert NZ show cyber crime reports from January to March incurred financial losses up to $6 million - a 66% increase on the same time last year. So, it's becoming increasingly difficult to avoid these scams - do you think you can spot a scam?

Vote in our poll, and type 'Not For Print' if you comment but want these excluded from the We Say You Say column of your local paper.

Hello Fresh box

Megan from Ponsonby

Hello Fresh give discounts to existing customers if they share a free box to a "new customer".

If you have never tried Hello Fresh before, please message me for a free box. I'll need your email address, then you'll get an invite from them.

Hello Fresh give discounts to existing customers if they share a free box to a "new customer".

If you have never tried Hello Fresh before, please message me for a free box. I'll need your email address, then you'll get an invite from them.

Hello Fresh works on a cellphone app. It may also work on a desktop/laptop (never tried).

Note the shipping is NOT free and is $9.99. I think you may also get discounts on future boxes.

Also if you want a box greater than $135 (I think) or extras like lunches or desserts, these are NOT free.

Hello Fresh works out pretty cheap if you keep getting the discounts. I just skip any weeks when I don't have discounts!

Tip: To cancel, call them (you can't do it in the app). Also if you cancel, then a year later you'll be considered a new customer and can call them and ask for discounts (esp if you mention Bargain Box!).

Hello Fresh definitely use alot of savvy marketing techniques, but if you are equally savvy, you can turn the tables and keep your grocery bill low!
