New Zealand Police are aware of reports emerging this month where Kiwis have been contacted on the phone by someone claiming to be an officer. The officer will claim to be from a particular department, tell you that you have been a victim of fraud or scam, and begin to try and obtain further financial information from you. This is a scam.
Detective Senior Sergeant Craig Bolton, from Auckland City’s Financial Crime Unit, says there have been at least a dozen reports made to Police, and these scam calls are largely being made to landlines. “While Police do not have accurate numbers of how many of these scam calls have been received, it is important that the public are aware,” he says. “Police will make some enquiries into these calls, but our experience has shown that often phone-based scammers will be operating from overseas. “We appreciate the vigilance of those who have contact Police so far, as this will help us to make others in the community aware.”
Unfortunately, scams can take many different forms and target victims on different platforms, Detective Senior Sergeant Bolton says. “Scammers are opportunistic and thrive off your trust and good-will. If you receive a call of this nature, do not hand over any personal details.”
New Zealand Police will never contact people seeking their banking details, card numbers, pin numbers or passwords. There are instances where legitimate Police officers will contact you as part of their duties. Police ask that the public remain vigilant.
𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿:
➡️Police will never ask for details about your bank cards, pin numbers or passwords over the phone.
➡️Trust your instincts. If something doesn't feel right, or is too good to be true, it probably is.
➡️If you are uncertain, ask for the officer’s details. Hang up, contact 105 and request the officer to contact you.
➡️Police aren’t in the business of offering prize money.
If you are in the unfortunate position of being a victim of a scam, please report the matter to Police.
Take the chance to upskill yourself on scam awareness, check for further information on the NetSafe website.
𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗺:
Police are also aware of an email scam that has re-emerged, that claims to be authorities from Police and other justice sector partners. This scam has been subject of previous advisories. We continue to advise people to be extremely cautious when receiving unsolicited emails. Do not reply an the email of this nature under any circumstances.

I have rescued him from a hostile household but I have 3 dogs and cannot care full-time. He is little, so sweet, so friendly to all dogs( not yappy at all at dog park, loves to meet all shapes and sizes). He is honestly the sweetest dog and I actually raised him but feel he needs better care than what he was getting. photo is of his father, Louie is a bit smaller. Ive had him with me and my 3 small dogs for 3 weeks and he has been perfect. He is a lovely dog and a purebred. He is very affectionate and cuddly. I'd love to have him if free on occasion as we have a bond too.

Tools and equipment can be a big investment for a contractor or tradie. You need to keep your investment secure but at the same time have the right tools when you need them. You might be between jobs and your stuff is taking up room at home or in the workshop you could be using for something else.

You might be between jobs and your stuff is taking up room at home or in the workshop you could be using for something else.
Speaking of home, your neighbour's van was broken into last week and he lost his tools and a lot of materials that will take time to replace. Plus you cant park it outside your house anymore as your street looks like Wilson Parking.
Another issue is that you work on several different projects during the day and it takes a long time to drive back to base to pick up the materials and right tools for the next job.
Where Self Storage Comes In.
Kiwi self Storage has five storage facilities in Auckland and Wellington. Our facilities are secure, dry and conveniently located close to major highways or roads. There are several ways that renting a storage unit can be the right move for you:
- Your tools and business inventory is safely secured behind electric fences with coded gate entry and CCTV monitoring. No more worry about items left in your van or on site overnight.
- You can store at a facility that is centrally located compared to where you work, meaning you can easily come back to pick up more materials or tools during the day without wasting time in traffic.
- Easy access with undercover loading and unloading
- Have materials or items couriered to your unit (conditions apply)
- You have full control over access to your unit - you provide the padlock
- You can scale the unit size up or down at any time to match the needs of your business
- You can install shelving to make the most of your unit.
- After one month you are only charged on a daily basis. Simply provide notice if you wish to move out.
- Insurance available

Just want some of my money back and it’s great mic - just not for me. Opened it yesterday and realised my mistake so brand new. Check the specs online and I have it on trademe but if anyone local wants it for $170 (heaps lower price than retail out there) they can come by and take it off my hands. DM me if interested 🙂
Price: $170

I want to understand what are your biggest obstacles when it comes to your particular business.
Perhaps if you are a tradie it may be finding consistent work and organising your time. If you are a cafe owner, it may be in making your food/drinks attractive, and implementing online booking while managing inventory. Or if you are a yoga instructor, your biggest challenge could be in crafting a welcoming environment and building a strong community.
If this speaks to you, I would love to hear your problems in the replies below. Cheers.
