A scam combining social media and old-school cheques has seen dozens of Aucklanders duped out of their cars.

In response, police are warning of the risks of unregulated trading online via Facebook Marketplace, where the scams took place.

The social media giant said it was sorry to hear what had happened and urged people to be wary of accepting payments via cheques on its Marketplace section.

Police across Auckland have received more than 50 complaints from people scammed out of their cars via the cheque swindle in the past year.

Do you use Facebook's Marketplace to buy and sell things?

Have you been the victim of an online scam?

What happened to you?

Did you get compensation eventually?

A national memorial to remember the victims of the Erebus disaster will be built almost 41 years after the disaster.

Members of the Waitematā Local Board have voted to support plans for the controversial memorial at Dove Myer Robinson Park, also known as the Parnell Rose Gardens.

The project has drawn opposition from residents of the central Auckland suburb, who believe the memorial is not suited for the park.

Steel walls rise on either side of the path, with 257 snowflakes carved into one of the walls to represent each life lost in the 1979 plane crash.

Avondale College is believed to be the first school in New Zealand to teach the Cambridge International law syllabus.

Teacher Farhanah Jeewa said the AS and A level law syllabus from Cambridge is ideal for students interested in reading law at university.

"We study the English legal system, which is similar to the New Zealand system," she said.

Introducing the syllabus this year stemmed from Jeewa's legal background.

Students at the Auckland secondary school are learning how laws are made, interpreted and adapted.

They love taking part in the mock trials, she said.

"We complete two different trials and students get to see the role of each person within the legal system.

"It is an enjoyable experience to see them become much more confident in the second trial.”
