Overseas scams on FB

Marina Neighbourly Lead from Fernside

Just wanted to let people be aware that there is a scam biz on facebook that pops up as Christmas shopping nears. It sell little magnetized sticks and balls to build with (picture often shows an Eiffel tower image). Company is called Linetics (or Linetics Magical Sticks and Balls) although it may change it's name. It is listed as an Arizona company online. I ordered 2 sets (2 for 1 offer x2) for a Christmas present and never received it. I have been blocked from it's Facebook page after complaint. Wish I read the reviews first as it seem I am not the only one to lose money.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
