Inland Revenue revealed earlier this month that there is about $183 million of tax refunds sitting unclaimed – enough to fly first class from Auckland to London and back more than 11,000 times.
Since then the IRD has been alerted to a scam email that asks users to enter their personal details to claim their tax refund. The email has the subject line, "IR3 individual income tax return 2016".
It's important to remember the IRD will not:
- Advise you that you are due a tax refund through email
- Send an email with a link to a webpage which asks you submit personal details
- Ask for credit card details or bank account numbers over the phone in order to process a monetary payment
- Ask you to pay a tax debt using gift cards or vouchers
- Sent you an email that does not include or ask for your IRD number
If you receive a suspicious email, SMS scam message or a fraudulent call please email phishing@ird.govt.nz or call them on 0800 227 774 (make sure you have your IRD number).

Where: Dunedin Public Art Gallery, Moray Place, Dunedin
When: 12:30pm - 1:30pm
Join Dr Yassir Morsi of La Trobe University and the 2017 Visiting Scholar of the Centre for Global Migrations as he discusses how Muslims re-build and 'become Western' in a free public lecture at the Dunedin Public Art Gallery.
In western states, today's debate about Muslims is commonly about whether they possess the right cultural or democratic qualities. Many use a white liberal (often poorly expressed) standard to decide this. They use it to determine whether society should see Muslims as rightful members of our nation or whether Islam's lack of these qualities make Muslims a threat and an outsider within. Dr Morsi asks what happens if we shift the discussion. What takes its place if we move away from a debate that does not begin with the question on whether Muslims 'belong'? What happens if it turns into a conversation on how (and in what ways) Muslims re-build, re-orient, sustain and 'become' (and help define what is) 'western'?
This approach will allow us to move away from notions that immigrants are hindered by their foreignness and of threats of the outsider within.
