NZ Transport Agency scam
Just received about the 10th copy of this so thought I would post it here as an example of the lengths crooks go to.
The bulk of the content is in the picture. Things of note -
I have recently renewed my drivers license and the subject of the email was a reminder to renew it. Red flags - it is already renewed so should not be prompting reminders, it was from 'reminder@transprego.co.nz' which is also nothing to do with NZTA although it does contain various characters like 'rego', checking the 'Renew now' button shows it taking you to 'tlwja-cmpzourl.maillist-manage.com' which happens to be somewhere in Europe, but the biggest red flag is that this reminder is for a registration renewal NOT a licence renewal.
It raises the question of where did the sender find the info that I was renewing my licence. Has the NZTA been compromised in some way ?

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
