Beware - credit card scam

Richard from Cambridge

A man with an Asian accent, possibly Indian, phoned me on my landline and said he was from Visa and asked if I had bought an Amazon gift card for $800 and an itunes gift card for $1000 because it had been debited to my credit card and he said they thought it was fraudulent.

He knew my address and name (probably from a phone book). He then asked me to open my computer and look up IP addresses and said I had a dozen foreign people accessing my computer. I strung him along for a while but he eventually realised this and hung up. Be warned!

Kiwis deserve better, which is why we’re fighting for power affordability for all of us. But we can’t do it alone.

Join us in the Revolt to bring power prices down, by signing the petition to demand that the Government reforms NZ’s broken electricity market. #Powergate ✊🏾 ✊🏿 ✊🏼 ✊🏽
