HOW TO KEEP SAFE FROM SCAMMERS
**Always take a sec to check before parting with your money or personal information
**Trust your instincts – if it feels wrong, it probably is. Urgency is a red flag – scammers try to rush you
**Your bank will never ask you for passwords, log-in details, or two-factor authentication codes, nor will they send you an email or text message asking you to log in
**Your bank will never tell you to move your money to a ‘safe’ account, or ask you to use your money to help catch a scammer
**Think carefully before entering your credit card details online
**Be cautious with unsolicited texts, emails, or calls – don’t give out details that could be used to impersonate you
**Don’t click on links or open attachments from people you don’t know, or seem out of character for someone you do know. Hover over links to reveal the actual site
**Don’t respond to instructions to download unknown software – it could be malware to access your accounts
**Be careful of deals or investments that sound too good to be true – they probably are. Contact investment firms or businesses via their official New Zealand-based websites, and never via online contacts, emails, links, or phone numbers sent to you directly or from other websites on the internet
**Use strong, unique passwords and PINs for your banking – don’t write them down or record them
**If you think you’ve been scammed report it to your bank immediately

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
