Stolen pop top Jayco camper/caravan - Wallace Rd TePuna
Has anybody seen a Jayco pop top camper being towed in the Tauranga area with a very distinctive number plate - YIMAN. It was stolen from our driveway in Wallace Td TePuna West today between 8.30am and 6.pm. Were you out walking on Wallace Rd on Thursday?
It is predominately white with brown/ tan highlights. It has a custom made tow rack- bar on the back and it has roof racks ( home made). Its roughly 4.5m when closed down, pretty much identical to the pic below. Any sightings or suspicious activity noticed in the Wallace rd/ Snodgrass Rd area please get in touch. It was towed out of our drive with the handbrake on so probably needed to stop at some point to sort that. It also had a 50mm tow ball which is not standard so you might see it dumped. If they didn't have the correct 50mm tow ball it could easily have jumped off the car. Thanks for any help you can give in finding this

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
