If you've noticed a missed call from a number you don't recognise (particularly international numbers), it is important that you don't call this number back and consider reporting this as a potential scam.

Phone companies are advising customers to reject these calls and if you have friends or family living overseas, it is recommended to have their numbers added as contacts in your mobile phone, so you can identify when they are calling you.

- Check out these tips from Netsafe for how to help protect yourself from scams.
- Read about the different types of scams you could be caught out by including wangiri (one ring) and 'technical support' scams
- Find out how to report a phone scam here.

If you’re not sure if something is legitimate or genuine you can contact Netsafe free advice seven days a week on 0508 NETSAFE or visit netsafe.org.nz

I was talking with a fellow breweress who gives her grain away to people with chooks. Apparently the chooks absolutely love it. I stress there is no alcohol in the grain at all so you're not going to have pissed chooks, as funny as that would be😂😂.
So, if you have chooks and want maybe 8-10kg of grain, please let me know.
Cheers
