Scam Alert: Refund requests targeting small businesses
Westpac has reported a new scam targeting businesses.
Scammers are reportedly messaging businesses with screenshots of bank statements that appear to show two identical payments to the business, and asking to be refunded for the falsified duplicate payment.
Businesses should double-check any payment details before responding to queries or processing refunds for customers.
If you receive suspicious communication regarding your accounts, contact your bank directly.

Whether itβs a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, donβt let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? π«
