Scam
Beware of a scammer operating on FB Marketplace. Name is J P Duncan (Jono). Modus operandi - Has been listing a car trailer for 1250 dollars stating it has a current registration & current wof. I visited his address in West Auckland & found the trailer didn't have a wof. The person said he would get the wof done within 3 days & he would hold the trailer if I gave him a deposit. So I gave him a deposit of $400 (bank transfer). Ever since then he has refused to get the wof done giving some excuse or another & has now stopped answering text messages & calls. Also, he has moved out of the property with no forwarding address. He called once & threatened me saying his old man is a gang member, he is a martial arts expert & has anger issues. Wanted my address to come & return my money. No sign now of the guy & the trailer. Can't tell how many others this guy has ripped off. The trailer number is - P676F. Have his phone number & bank account details. He said he did fencing & decking in West Auckland.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
