Leondra from Burnside

My mango boy was stolen by a lady named Lulu Dunbar please neighbours help me get him back she posted him on fb saying she was looking for the owners as soon as I commented she ghosted me and refused to reply. Admin for the group even tried to get a hold of her to return him. I don’t know why the heck she felt the need to pick h up and take him home and hold him captive I just want my cat back. I have even gone as far as make a police complaint with evidence of the post and my cat. He is not chipped my daughter gifted him to me in January he has been desexed totally regretting not chipping him sooner still tho he’s mine and I don’t know why this lady feels she has had to hold him captive she got a lot of feedback from others for trying to claim him before I had even seen the post. I just want my cat back crazy lady he’s scared and wants to come home! Any info please call 02109144671. This is the dog photo on the post my mango looks terrified😌This is her post.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

‘Tis the season to not get scammed ...

The Team from New Zealand Police

As Christmas gift shopping moves increasingly online, scammers are ramping up their activity across the country.

Dunedin’s Investigation Support Unit is seeing more and more people fall victim to scams and other fraudulent activity, particularly on Facebook Marketplace.

There are a few ways to avoid the scams and keep yourself safe doing online trades this holiday season, says Southern District Service Delivery Manager Senior Sergeant Dalton.
🔒 “A good first step when looking to purchase something on Marketplace is to check when the seller’s Facebook profile was created. If it’s very recent, there is a higher risk that they have just created this account for a one-off fake item.”
🔒 Another important step is to make sure the seller’s profile name and bank account name match up. “We’re seeing a lot of scammers claiming their bank account name is different because it belongs to their partner or family member - that’s a huge red flag."
🔒 “When you’re selling, never trust a screenshot anyone sends you showing that payment has been made. Check your own bank account to make sure a payment has gone through."
🔒 “Quite frankly, it’s best for all parties to agree to pay, or be paid, for items in cash and in-person. Ideally in a public place with CCTV coverage."
🔒 "If you’re buying a car, check Carjam.co.nz to see if it’s stolen or if there’s money owed on it.”

A reminder: Suspicious activity can be reported on 105
