Neighbourly hopes to keep you safe by keeping you informed of the latest scams circulating. This week, we are sharing two common text message scams:

NZTA / Waka Kotahi scam:
- The scam is a text message saying it's from New Zealand Transport Agency Waka Kotahi, and it encourages the recipient to pay an overdue road toll by visiting a fake website, threatening to take the matter to court within 15 days if they don’t pay up.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- While it is not the first time toll payments have been utilised by scammers, the threat of court action could see more people fall victim.
- The sender will either be a unknown phone number or unknown email address.
Want to report one of these scams? Do so, on Netsafe

NZ Post scam:
- This scam arrives by test message and says it's from NZ Post.
- The premise is that delivery of your parcel was unsuccessful so in order to rearrange delivery. you must click on a link to give your correct address.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- NZ Post advises people not to click the link, but to report the message to the Department of Internal Affairs by forwarding it to 7726.
Think you may have fallen prey to a scam? Get in touch with Netsafe or contact your bank if it involved your bank details.

Remember, if you didn't expect the message and you are now asked to share personal details or money, then stop contact and seek advice elsewhere.

Feel free to share any below that you've encountered recently. This may help others across the country be aware.

Those of us in Somerville / Howick area appear to be
Being taken advantage of by our local Caltex Meadowland Drive/Whitford Road. For some time leading yo to the Auckland Fuel Tax being removed they were 10/11cents per Litre higher than most local outlets comparing similar reward prices. They still remain 10/11 cents more per litre.
This morning just an example $267.9 per litre. BP by K Mart $256.9 per litre. Even cheaper around Highbrook I noticed. I wrote to Caltex som3 weeks ago and received the reply “ it is just local competition”.
My advice - Do not use Caltex Meadowlands until the message gets through that we are not lazy local idiots to be taken advantage of.
