Where do scams take place?
Over the phone, via text message, via email, online or even in person.
What red flags should you be looking out for? Ask yourself these questions...
- Were you expecting this message? or was it out of the blue?
- Are they saying there's a problem which you didn't anticipate?
- Are you having to give money over?
- Are you being rushed?
- Are you being told to click on a link or go to an unfamiliar website?
- Are you being asked to share personal info or passwords?
- Are you being asked to pay in a strange way like wire transfer, gift cards, etc
- Does something not feel right? Do you feel confused?
If you answer yes to any of these questions, it's best to stop communicating and seek support. But if you've already given over money, contact your bank immediately.
You can check if it's a scam by contacting |Netsafe|:
- Toll-free on 0508 NETSAFE (0508 638 723) or +6496660840 if calling from outside New Zealand
- Emailing help@netsafe.org.nz
If you're pretty sure it's a scam, make a report at netsafe.org.nz
Remember Neighbourly is a free service for neighbours so we won't ask you for money or for your password. All emails will come from noreply@neighbourly.co.nz - so feel free to get in touch if you're unsure of something!
Hope this helps you, neighbours!

There is about 25 lineal metres of Kauri and it is 12" wide and 2" thick. (300mm by 52mm)
The image shows this timber in its machined and polyurethane painted state, over forty years later and untouched since then.
Kauri is perfect for creating custom furniture, panel doors, moulded architraves, skirting, kitchen cabinets etc. No nails, very few holes, this is clean, old timber, milled 150 years ago.
I'm selling the whole lot as one package so please don't ask for small lengths. Kauri has been unobtainable since the 1940's and long lengths like these are very hard to source.
