Internet Fraudsters

Jeff from Saint Andrews

Welcome to the New Year new Internet Scammer Tricks. My friend recently told me how she had someone call to say her computer had a problem with Windows and oh amazingly this caller works for Windows but also amazingly my friend doesn't even have a computer!. I don't believe we've had an April Fools day yet therefore clearly these mongrels of society are trying to rip people off yet again. I asked for their official government reference but they kept on saying I have a Windows fault. When I told them prove themselves or I would call the Police they sort of counted one, two, three hang up. So I called the Police and left a detailed note of everything as calling the Police immediately this happens makes it easier for them to find the fraudsters yet unfortunately the more complaints the better but make sure you have fairly exact details. With Caller ID it comes up as Unavailable which is so typical of fraudsters hence why I believe Caller ID to ignore hidden phone numbers from wasting precious time is very helpful. Please no-one fall for this fraud and lets help catch these online fraudsters.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
