A time to be vigilant

The team from Netsafe

It's tax return time. Scammers are impersonating Inland Revenue (IR) - and even the Police to steal personal information and money.

It's tax return time. Scammers are impersonating Inland Revenue (IR) - and even the Police to steal personal information and money.

They may contact you by email, text, or phone, claiming:
🔹 You're owed a tax refund and must provide your bank details to receive it.
🔹 You owe tax and need to pay immediately to avoid legal trouble.

How to stay safe:
✅ Don’t click on links in emails or texts - log in to your myIR account directly.
✅ Check the sender - official IRD emails always end in @ird.govt.nz.
✅ Be cautious with texts - IRD only sends messages from four-digit codes, not
regular phone numbers.

Defies any ACCOUNTABILITY ? Who was the twit that instigated the road closure in the first instance ? What about the lack of informing the MOST AFFECTED LOCAL HOME OWNWERS? How about the lack of consistency regarding closure times on the poorly placed signage ?
Frankly I believe the contractor requires a dressing down and Council should act on the matter.
