The holiday season can already be a stressful time, and the last thing you want is to lose large sums of money to a scam.
A phishing scam is an online scam, where the offender pretends to be a trustworthy person or organisation to try and get a victim’s personal information.
Police has received a number of phishing scam reports with offenders targeting people who are selling items or services online like Trade Me and Facebook Marketplace.
The offenders pretend to be an interested buyer, and urgently request to buy your product and arrange a courier pickup.
The victim receives a fake courier website link to complete a verification process asking for personal details, like bank account numbers, passwords, and phone numbers.
Once provided these details, the offender uses these to access a victim’s bank account, tricking the victim into proving any multifactor authentication code sent from the victim’s bank.
The money in the victim’s bank account is then taken by the offender once access is gained.
Police are urging members of the public to be cautious, especially when someone in person or online is asking you to give them money or your personal details like bank accounts and passwords.
Never comply with a request asking you to provide or ‘verify’ your online banking details.
Legitimate organisations will never ask you to do this.
If you are unsure if it is real, please contact your bank by the phone number on their official website or go to your nearest branch.
If you receive a courier website link from a potential buyer, this is likely a scam.
Please do not fill out the verification process.
Use the social media/trading platform’s reporting tools to report the scam and the user involved.
You can also make a report to Netsafe at report.netsafe.org.nz.
If you have handed over your online banking details, contact your bank immediately and suspend your account.
If you think you have been scammed (provided your banking details and/or suffered a loss), please gather as much information you can and make a report to Police online through 105.police.govt.nz or call 105.

😀 A friendly reminder - ☀️ When the summer heat is on, making sure your house stays cool is a must. We all know cranking up the AC can hit the wallet hard, but fear not! There are some wallet-friendly strategies to keep you chill without breaking the bank.

Strategic Use of Curtains and Blinds:
Let your curtains and blinds be your cooling buddies. Keep them closed during the hottest part of the day to block out that intense sunlight. Go for light-colored window treatments – they reflect, not absorb, the heat.
Ventilation:
💨 Maximise airflow by smartly opening windows and doors for a cross breeze. Thinking about installing ceiling fans or using portable fans? Great idea to keep that air circulating efficiently!
Insulation:
Don’t underestimate the power of good insulation! It doesn’t just keep you cosy in winter; it works wonders in maintaining a cool vibe during summer. Pay attention to the attic and roof space!
🌳 Strategic Landscaping:
Nature’s shade! Plant trees strategically around your home to give you that natural coolness. Awnings or pergolas can also create shaded outdoor areas.
🌟 Energy-Efficient Appliances:
If you're appliance shopping, go for the energy-efficient ones. They consume less electricity and emit less heat – a win-win for a cooler home.
Limit Heat-Generating Activities:
When the sun is blazing, avoid using appliances that generate heat. Opt for alternatives like grilling outdoors or air-drying clothes.
Cooling Bedding and Clothing:
Invest in lightweight, breathable bedding and clothing made from natural fibers. Cotton and linen are your summer BFFs.
Seal Leaks and Drafts:
Inspect for leaks and drafts! Seal gaps around windows, doors, and vents to keep that hot air from sneaking in.
Use of Heat-Reflective Paint:
Ever heard of heat-reflective paint? Consider applying it to your roof or exterior walls. It's like sunscreen for your house, reflecting sunlight and keeping things cool.
🌡️ Programmable Thermostat:
Upgrade to a programmable thermostat. It's like having your house on autopilot, optimizing energy usage for maximum comfort.
Implement these strategies, and you can keep your cool during the summer without sweating over energy bills. From simple curtain tricks to more significant insulation upgrades, there's a budget-friendly solution for everyone.
Stay cool, stay comfy, and enjoy the summer vibes without the budget blues! 😎🏡
