Dunedin’s Investigation Support Unit is seeing more and more people fall victim to scams and other fraudulent activity, particularly on Facebook Marketplace.
There are a few ways to avoid the scams and keep yourself safe doing online trades this holiday season, says Southern District Service Delivery Manager Senior Sergeant Dalton.
🔒 “A good first step when looking to purchase something on Marketplace is to check when the seller’s Facebook profile was created. If it’s very recent, there is a higher risk that they have just created this account for a one-off fake item.”
🔒 Another important step is to make sure the seller’s profile name and bank account name match up. “We’re seeing a lot of scammers claiming their bank account name is different because it belongs to their partner or family member - that’s a huge red flag."
🔒 “When you’re selling, never trust a screenshot anyone sends you showing that payment has been made. Check your own bank account to make sure a payment has gone through."
🔒 “Quite frankly, it’s best for all parties to agree to pay, or be paid, for items in cash and in-person. Ideally in a public place with CCTV coverage."
🔒 "If you’re buying a car, check Carjam.co.nz to see if it’s stolen or if there’s money owed on it.”
A reminder: Suspicious activity can be reported on 105

Police were called to the serious incident about 4:10am, in a carpark between Wakefield Street and Tory Street. The victim sustained multiple stab wounds to the arm and the back.
He was taken to hospital and admitted to the Intensive Care Unit. The man remains in hospital in a stable condition.
Wellington Area Investigations Manager Detective Senior Sergeant Tim Leitch says the man is lucky to not have died. “The victim sustained multiple wounds in his back, any of which could have been fatal.
“This could have very easily been a homicide investigation.
“What we know is there were a significant number of people in the surrounding area when this happened – we need to hear from these people.
“If you saw any part of what unfolded we want to hear from you.”
Investigators are continuing to follow strong lines of enquiry to locate the people responsible, but Detective Senior Sergeant Leitch urged anyone with footage, or who witnessed the incident to contact Police as soon as possible.
If you have any information which may assist, please update us online now or call 105.

If you’d like to make those dollars work harder for our local communities, consider choosing small. Households spend more than $110 billion with big businesses each year. Shifting a portion of that toward small, local retailers can make a huge difference for the wider small-business economy.
