countdown scam

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Hi Friends,
Just letting you know if you receive a text message from countdown saying you have won a prize in a draw, e.g An Easter Draw - and it tells you to go to a website, it is a SCAM. I have just spoken to Countdown Head Office and they said they would never give away prizes in this way. Pity - Hoped I had won myself an Easter Bunny that does housework!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
