HELP!!! Vodafone Scam discovered - Prepaid customers check your balance every Friday

Derek from Forrest Hill

Last night, I took a photo of the wonderful prepaid offers to show to my Whatsapp group, telling them of the marvellous offers.
Because the photo was taken, I could see my balance before the next offer at 12.00 midnight on Friday.

Last night, I took a photo of the wonderful prepaid offers to show to my Whatsapp group, telling them of the marvellous offers.
Because the photo was taken, I could see my balance before the next offer at 12.00 midnight on Friday.
I looked at Friday's weekly offer this morning. The prepaid balance showed a different amount compared to what was in the photo.
I wondered how often this skimming of my balance is happening. Who should I take this finding to? THIS IS FRAUDULENT!!!
I also checked my detailed usage and it showed no spending.
Which independent body can help me find the truth? If this had happened to me, imagine with nearly 50% (nearly 500,000 customers) of the mobile phone market in its books, how much money would the make out of the unsuspecting customers.
VODAFONE, that's not good enough. You need to explain to all of us.
I better take a photo of today's balance before they change it. Just tried to get into my Vodafone account, I am locked out

Short notice: The next lecture in the Fascination Science series is on Tuesday 12th February 7pm-8.30pm (tonight) at Massey University's Auckland campus in the Massey Business School (MBS) Auditorium on in Albany.

Through the looking glass: Host-parasite coevolution and sex.

Why do males exist?

The most common answer is that males are needed for reproduction; but that is not true for many species of both plants and animals. Why, then, is the earth not dominated by clonally reproducing females? Surely cloning is a more efficient way to reproduce.

So why, in general, is there sex? The question has been raised by many prominent evolutionary biologists, including Darwin; but the answer remains elusive.

In this talk, Prof. Curtis Lively (visiting from Indiana University) will present 30-plus years of research on "why sex?”, highlighting the Red Queen Hypothesis, which posits that parasites select against successful clonal lineages, once they become common in the population.
