It is a very good copy of a legitimate IR email. It can be detected by the following:
- The From Field does not end in ird.govt.nz
- Hovering the cursor over the weblink does not point to an IRD.GOVT.NZ website.
- Do not click as these are not from IRD. We will never advise you that you are due a tax refund through email.
Anyone who receives an email from the IRD, or someone claiming to be the IRD should get in contact with them.
Below is an example of the scam email:

The blue lights introduced to "minimise reflection" on the driver's front windscreen have been criticised for being "too aggressive" and being "unhealthy".
Metlink said the lights were not installed for aesthetics, but instead had an "operational purpose". What do you think of them?
