Ok, HERE'S a little bit of cuteness for everybody to enjoy. ๐
My POOR confused little lockdown friend (not my cat! The neighbours' cat!), wondering why I can't let her in. AS I took this photo, I was saying, "I DO love you! I DO! It's just I can't let you in, coz lockdown rules." ๐ Hehehe. ๐ You MAY NOT be able to see this quite clearly (my dumb phone's camera sucks) but she actually has slightly crossed eyes! ๐ No I don't know her name, but I call her Tabby, coz she is one - she has a collar with a worn-out scruffy leopard print bowtie attached, and she's been visiting my garden the past two days (and the past several months, actually) and driving the mynah birds CRAZY whenever she appears!!!!!!!! No, I don't mind - she keeps me company but has to stay OUTSIDE during lockdown as she is part of someone else's bubble and I don't want to pass anything on to her owner on her fur. ๐โค๏ธ๏ธโค๏ธ๏ธ

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
๐ก๏ธ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and youโre unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:โโ
โ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codesโโ
โ Never need to know your full credit card number โ especially the CVC
โ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your deviceโโ
โ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
