IRD is warning of a new scam that asking customers for credit card details. IRD has received a significant number of report about the email.

It is a very good copy of a legitimate IR email. It can be detected by the following:
- The From Field does not end in ird.govt.nz
- Hovering the cursor over the weblink does not point to an IRD.GOVT.NZ website.
- Do not click as these are not from IRD. We will never advise you that you are due a tax refund through email.

Anyone who receives an email from the IRD, or someone claiming to be the IRD should get in contact with them.

Below is an example of the scam email:

The blue lights introduced to "minimise reflection" on the driver's front windscreen have been criticised for being "too aggressive" and being "unhealthy".

Metlink said the lights were not installed for aesthetics, but instead had an "operational purpose". What do you think of them?

TROJAN BULL set/storage piece.

A large sturdy metal and plywood creation, with fully empty interior lined with sparkly blue magician turf, and on excellent wheels. The main body is made of strong but light aluminium of 1 or 2mm, the doors are made of 4 or 5mm plywood, painted grey, and the wheels are sturdy rubber trolley wheels in excellent condition.
Bull head (pictured) bolts to the opening on the side. 2-3 persons can easily fit inside.

This is a fantastic piece of construction that could be repurposed to any number of things. It is being given away by The Barbarian Production team, because it no longer fits into the needs of their current projects. Any type of koha would be welcome but we're just looking for someone who can use it and give it a new life! It rolls easily and is raring to go.


Pick up only. Box can be dismantled into two parts (box and wheel frame)
