Local Con man re-appears

Mike from Otorohanga District

I wrote a small article previously regarding being ripped off by a funny (Most people refer to him as creepy) old character by the fake name of Gareth Evans (Real name is Gary Lee Wilfred Evans), has been mucking local people and local businesses around before skipping town for 3 or 4 weeks. He has now returned to Otorohanga somewhere between 64 and 68 Phillips Ave (Wrecks of cars in driveway). If you have met him, he probably would have spun a yarn about being the Famous Welsh Rugby star Gareth Evans. Message back if anyone needs any further information, such as media articles outlining his previous dishonesty and escapades etc.

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)
.
