A21 Walk for Freedom Mount Maunganui - 20 Oct 2018
This October 20th in cities around the world thousands of people will join the annual ‘Walk for Freedom’ – to raise awareness of, and funds to fight, the $150 billion industry that is human trafficking. Banks Reserve, Banks Avenue is the launch point for Mount Maunganui’s ‘Walk for Freedom.’
The 3km walk is to raise awareness about modern day slavery and also fundraise for the amazing organisation A21 that works on the front line to rescue, rehabilitate and prevent human trafficking. A21 has 14 offices in 12 countries around the world with the aim to reach, rescue and restore. A21’s mission is to end slavery. There are an estimated 40.3 million people trapped in modern day slavery. Come raise your voice and be a voice for the voiceless.
Participating in the walk costs nothing more than two hours of your time. And all are welcome.

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.
