The next step of the Southern Link Investigation will take ten years to produce real results, but safer shared pathways could be coming to the waterfront much sooner, as NZTA looks into that separately from and simultaneously to their Southern Link work.

Beware of the tiny homes scam

Hi neighbours,

Hi neighbours,

Keep your eyes peeled for the latest scam to be fooling Kiwis. Scammers are taking advantage of people looking for a home to call their own, creating fake competitions and giveaways to win a tiny home.

A recent scam asked people to sign up on their page which went through a process of multiple surveys so the scammers can collect more information about the Facebook user in the hope of collecting personal details, including bank accounts. To read all about the scam, click here.

A fraud education manager says:
- People are helping the scammers by liking and sharing the post as it spreads the virus
- As soon as you like the Facebook post it gives scammers access to information
- If unsure whether it's a scam or not, look for terms and conditions - often these scams do not have them
- If you think you've been made a victim of an online scam, contact Netsafe and report it immediately. You can access Netsafe's page here.

Recycling do we bother or not?

Marcia from The Wood

My neighbour and I were discussing recycling - which we both do and then also discussing that we have heard it all ends up in landfill.
I remeber seeing a post earlier this year but not sure of the content.
Its time consuming but feel worthwhile if it is repurposed.

Would like to know if I'm wasting my time or if it is actually recycled.
Anyone in the know?
