? Scam ?
Hi All,
Just want to share what I’ve experienced ~ I think it is a scam. Please keep yourselves safe.
In the last 3 days since Sunday morning I have received 13 phone calls on my cell phone from ‘No Caller ID’. I didn’t answer the first few times they called, but as they were persistent I thought it might be important so I answered. It is automated, no real people, the message starts “This is not a marketing call” but they don’t identify themselves at all. They then proceed to tell me my year of birth then ask me to key in my day and month of birth. That’s when I hung up, and have denied further calls of my time.
I have contacted my provider which is 2Degrees. They were very helpful and said that I had done the right thing buy hanging up on the caller and then reporting them. 2Degrees are going to investigate the matter for me.
Has anyone experienced the ‘delight’ of these nuisance calls?
Stay safe people. Keep your personal info private.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
