Fraudulent credit card scamming
Hi neighbors,
Just a quick heads up - there's a number going around that's been calling people and asking for personal information like numbers and dates of birth. They called me really early this morning from an Auckland based number.
Just a reminder to never give out personal information over the phone unless you're absolutely sure of who you're talking to.
Stay safe and have a great day!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
