Poll: Can you spot a scam?
We used to just be wary of clicking links online, and then came the deceptive phone calls, followed by text messages that look to be from a known company.
The latest statistics from Cert NZ show cyber crime reports from January to March incurred financial losses up to $6 million - a 66% increase on the same time last year. So, it's becoming increasingly difficult to avoid these scams - do you think you can spot a scam?
