NZ Transport Agency scam
Just received about the 10th copy of this so thought I would post it here as an example of the lengths crooks go to.
The bulk of the content is in the picture. Things of note -
I have recently renewed my drivers license and the subject of the email was a reminder to renew it. Red flags - it is already renewed so should not be prompting reminders, it was from 'reminder@transprego.co.nz' which is also nothing to do with NZTA although it does contain various characters like 'rego', checking the 'Renew now' button shows it taking you to 'tlwja-cmpzourl.maillist-manage.com' which happens to be somewhere in Europe, but the biggest red flag is that this reminder is for a registration renewal NOT a licence renewal.
It raises the question of where did the sender find the info that I was renewing my licence. Has the NZTA been compromised in some way ?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
