Lots of email invoice scams about

Christopher from Create IT

Unfortunately there are a lot of scams about at the moment, including fake Vodafone and Spark bills, presumably because scammers know people will have been using their phones and internet more over the last few weeks.
All these scams can be spotted if you check the email they are sent from.
Also check the account number, for example I received a scam claiming to be Vodafone that looked very similar to the real thing but both the sender's email address, and my 'account number' were fake.
Also there were links to pay up that looked like they went to Vodafone, but hovering over them (without clicking), showed they went off to some dodgy site.

Keep safe everyone. If you need to spend money, spend it on NZ businesses, not scammers.
