The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If you've noticed a missed call from a number you don't recognise (particularly international numbers), it is important that you don't call this number back and consider reporting this as a potential scam.

Phone companies are advising customers to reject these calls and if you have friends or family living overseas, it is recommended to have their numbers added as contacts in your mobile phone, so you can identify when they are calling you.

- Check out these tips from Netsafe for how to help protect yourself from scams.
- Read about the different types of scams you could be caught out by including wangiri (one ring) and 'technical support' scams
- Find out how to report a phone scam here.

If you’re not sure if something is legitimate or genuine you can contact Netsafe free advice seven days a week on 0508 NETSAFE or visit netsafe.org.nz

Hi Folks, the South Brighton Voices (formerly South Brighton Choral Society) will be holding their next concert on Sunday 27th May, commencing 2.00 p.m., and this time it will be held at the new Opawa Community Church, on the corner of Aynsley Terrace and Opawa Road. 
I have attached a copy of the poster, advertising the concert, and I had wondered why the word "Hair" was included in the title but, as we are singing "Aquarius" in the concert, I understand that this comes from the stage production of "Hair".  We have a lovely varied programme for the concert, and as is our usual practise, afternoon tea will be served after the concert.  See you there!
