Visa Phone Scam Calls

Jane from Waikanae

Just had two of these scam calls about an hour apart: One was about $900.00 spent on Bitcoin. They got that out before I managed to put the receiver down. I had flour all over my hands, so I was a tad slow. Just a warning to let you know they seem active again around here.

Hundreds of Kiwi children will receive something special this Christmas thanks to Ryman Healthcare’s support of the Catalytic Foundation’s Christmas Shoebox Project.

Instead of giving individual gifts to residents, the idea was to redirect those funds to support struggling New Zealand families having to cut back on essentials.

Ryman residents were overwhelmingly in support of the idea, with many volunteering to help choose the gifts to fill over 1000 shoeboxes with thoughtful items.

It keeps food hot and separated in the top containers, and in the bottom half even keeps plates hot or food in bigger dishes again. We no longer have a use for it although in the past used it for dinner parties and BBQs. Make us an offer and collect it in Otaki. Contact me on 021818636.
