We're looking into how some common claims about NZ stack up and would be interested in your thoughts on whether New Regent Street in Christchurch deserves its title of 'NZ's most beautiful street'. Do you think it is the best-looking street in the country? Or is there another street you think is more beautiful? Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it included in an article. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.

If this sort of advertising/endorsement from any well known person or celebrity comes up in your feeds ignore it. Please do not click the register button, it will only lead to alot of monetary pain, the only ones that will make money is the scammers. These scammers want you to think it's real this is why they use celebrities names and faces.
The trouble is as soon as this advertisement is taken down another one pops up, usually using a different celebrity's name or face. Take care and be weary of any celebrity endorsements involving money.

Because we shop online I could be misled that I have a parcel pending. But look closely at the email addresses from the first two emails and you will see they are not genuine email addresses, however my Gmail has accepted one of the emails as safe (it's not). The third genuine/real NZ Post email however has the address: NZ Post • noreply.notifications@nzpost.co.nz.
I understand alot of our older or vulnerable whānau may receive phishing emails from fraudulent persons posing as NZ Post about packages. The problem is these persons behind the emails are after information, and when you click the full details button, you are taken to a site where you have to pay for the package (where your credit card could be compromised). Moreover, your computer or Phone can be loaded with a adware, ransomware, spyware, trojan horses, worms and malware (just know all of these are bad). If in doubt ask for help before clicking that button. Another way is to go to the official site, these have https:// with site name and a closed lock symbol next to the name, to inquire if the email is genuine. If you have been scammed seek help from Whānau/Family, Friends, Police, Citizens Advice, and/or Netsafe.org.nz (0508 638 723).
With any unwanted or unexpected emails from reputable organizations with suspicious email addresses take care.

The email directs the recipient to renew the funds through clicking a 'Renew Now' button at the bottom corner of the email. It then takes the individual to fake website that gets them to fill in personal details.
CERT NZ, the government authority responsible for cyber security said in a tweet, that anyone who receives this email should report it directly to Waka Kotahi (NZTA).
How to spot a phishing scam:
- NZTA will only send an email through if an individual has contacted them first.
- Email addresses will always end in @nzta.govt.nz, @enews.nzta.govt.nz or @reply.nzta.govt.nz.
- The email may be missing specific details that the NZTA will have on file: such as your plate number, the date your vehicle license is due and vehicle make and model.
- Hover over buttons and links to see if the pop-up will take you to a genuine government (.govt.nz) website
