UNUSUAL E-MAIL RECEIVED YESTERDAY

Avryll Dawn from Hornby

Hi everyone.....I only read this e-mail today. It has a From Address of "Apple" stitchandflora@xtra.co.nz. It is a receipt for a 1913 Old Hebrew Bible, which has been billed to a store credit card for $75. I do not know of this order, this store, and have no store card with this organisation. There is a section at the end which asks if I have issues with the transaction, Tells me to click on the 'link below' in order to get a full refund. There is an order number, receipt number, and they appear to use Spark as their provider......
I have a lovely New King James Bible (well worn now), and would never have ordered a Hebrew Bible.
Has anyone else received such an e-mail, and what is an e-mail address for the Police where I can forward this e-mail to them.

Is there no end to the scams these people will try, trouble is that this time it is a Spark NZ address...........
Av

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
