Message from Constable Don Allan & NZ PoliceCrime Alert
Hi All,
Over the last week Police have seen a huge increase in reported burglaries in Onehunga. It is important that local residents are made aware in order that an increase in vigilance be taken.
These offences have occurred near Trafalgar St, Inkerman St and Mt Smart Rd areas. Police believe that many of these burglaries are linked to the same offender due to close proximity and timings of incidents.
As a result of this crime spree we are increasing bail checks on local known offenders to ensure compliance with court and police bail restrictions. Police have also been tasked with increasing patrols in the hot spot areas.
At this stage we do not have any nominated suspects.
Earlier this week a burglary occurred on Symonds Street Onehunga. The suspect approached a residents address where they rang the doorbell to check if anyone was home. This particular address had a doorbell camera which obtained an image of a suspect believe to have committed a burglary on Symonds St, Onehunga. Refer to pic #1 on the attached crime alert.
If you have any information in relation to a crime and wish to remain anonymous, you can report information confidentially on 0800 555111 (crime stoppers)
Found cat
Is this your missing cat? I found this gorgeous friendly boy at the back of the Onehunga dump on Angle Street, Onehunga on Tuesday. I took him to the vets, he's not microchipped or neutered, is approximately 2 to 3 years old and has 4 white paws. If he is yours please private message me.
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.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ 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.
