āTis the season to not get scammed ...
As Christmas gift shopping moves increasingly online, scammers are ramping up their activity across the country.
Dunedinās Investigation Support Unit is seeing more and more people fall victim to scams and other fraudulent activity, particularly on Facebook Marketplace.
There are a few ways to avoid the scams and keep yourself safe doing online trades this holiday season, says Southern District Service Delivery Manager Senior Sergeant Dalton.
š āA good first step when looking to purchase something on Marketplace is to check when the sellerās Facebook profile was created. If itās very recent, there is a higher risk that they have just created this account for a one-off fake item.ā
š Another important step is to make sure the sellerās profile name and bank account name match up. āWeāre seeing a lot of scammers claiming their bank account name is different because it belongs to their partner or family member - thatās a huge red flag."
š āWhen youāre selling, never trust a screenshot anyone sends you showing that payment has been made. Check your own bank account to make sure a payment has gone through."
š āQuite frankly, itās best for all parties to agree to pay, or be paid, for items in cash and in-person. Ideally in a public place with CCTV coverage."
š "If youāre buying a car, check Carjam.co.nz to see if itās stolen or if thereās money owed on it.ā
A reminder: Suspicious activity can be reported on 105
