THIS IS definitely A SCAM. The email was missing information that made me query its authenticity. So I went onto a online chat site which I thought was the correct Norton site.
The so called agent Deborah Mullen after chatting online with her for alittle while, made me suspicious I was being scammed. She wanted me to keep the online chat opened so I could access the link to put payment through. She wouldn't email the link & said the special discount offer was only valid for a day or until she finished her shift or I can contact them again & 1 of the other agents would help me. I asked her to clarify what a day meant & she replied 'Our offices close at 8pm'. So I made up an excuse- said I lost my credit card & needed to organise a ride into the bank to organise funds & 8pm should be enough time to get things organised.
I unfortunately bumped/ closed the site I was chatting with Deborah.
I contacted the 'real' Norton site & they confirmed both Adam Zampa & Deborah Mullen are not Norton agents.
They are investigating this further.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
