I received an email today , exactly as above , then got another later purporting to be from Metering Services Ltd , stating I owed $304 from Dec last year .
Had the correct address, from a year ago ,
but totally different account/customer number and the power account is in joint names but email only had my name on it
I am assuming that this is a scam but wondering if others have had similar emails
Thanks Greg Stewart

Health and Bylaws Manager, Reiner Mussle says Kensington Park seems to have been one of the worst areas in our District for leavings.
“Kensington Park is actually a dog restricted area because it is used by hundreds of children and adults for team sports each week. As we move into Alert Level 2 sports may resume, so it’s important that our sportsfields and parks are ready to use.”
Mr Mussle says dog owners who don’t remove their dog’s faeces from public places and dispose of it appropriately may face a fine of $300.

After coming to an abrupt halt for the Alert Level 4 lockdown, roadworks are one of the industries that are now allowed to resume.
This includes work on the Maunu and Porowini Avenue intersection as well as the Mill Rd roadworks - replacing kerb, channel and footpaths ahead of the road rebuild planned for later this year.
Whangarei District Council Capital Works and Procurement Manager Greg Monteith says Council contractors are gearing up to get back to work at sites around the District, although there are some additional Health and Safety requirements that need to be followed. “All our roading contractors have had to provide us with updated Health and Safety plans covering off issues such as maintaining social distancing, contact tracing, maintaining work bubbles, and following other protocols set out by the Government for working during Alert Level 3.”
Mr Monteith said the contractors he has spoken to are all looking forward to getting works underway as quickly as they can, once safety issues are worked through.
“It’s going to be great for them to be able to get back to work, helping get the local construction industry back on its feet, as well as helping restart the local economy.”
Mr Monteith says that a small amount of works that are weather and temperature dependent have now had to be put off until the next construction season, which will start in September/October this year.
“Unfortunately, the COVID situation has caused delays for some projects but any enabling works we can start up for these projects, we will get underway as soon as we can.”
