Scam Alert: Investment scam and remote access

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Be aware of an investment scam that is allowing access to people’s phones.

How it works: The scam encourages you to install an app from an unverified source. This requires that you change your phone settings.

❌ DO NOT allow your phone to install unknown apps.

Once the app is installed, the scammers can gain access to your phone’s info. This will impact you, but may also facilitate scams on people you know using information lifted from your phone and installed apps.

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?
