A scam combining social media and old-school cheques has seen dozens of Aucklanders duped out of their cars.

In response, police are warning of the risks of unregulated trading online via Facebook Marketplace, where the scams took place.

The social media giant said it was sorry to hear what had happened and urged people to be wary of accepting payments via cheques on its Marketplace section.

Police across Auckland have received more than 50 complaints from people scammed out of their cars via the cheque swindle in the past year.

The government has initiated a review into whether New Zealanders pay too much at the supermarket checkouts.

The Commerce Commission plans to follow a similar approach to that of their investigation into the price of petrol and diesel for land transport, which cost the taxpayer an estimated $2.5 million dollars. Labour promised an investigation into food prices on the election campaign and if unfair practices are found when the Commission's report is released in late 2021, necessary changes will be made.

Do you notice price differences between supermarket chains?
