A time to be vigilant

The team from Netsafe

It's tax return time. Scammers are impersonating Inland Revenue (IR) - and even the Police to steal personal information and money.

It's tax return time. Scammers are impersonating Inland Revenue (IR) - and even the Police to steal personal information and money.

They may contact you by email, text, or phone, claiming:
🔹 You're owed a tax refund and must provide your bank details to receive it.
🔹 You owe tax and need to pay immediately to avoid legal trouble.

How to stay safe:
✅ Don’t click on links in emails or texts - log in to your myIR account directly.
✅ Check the sender - official IRD emails always end in @ird.govt.nz.
✅ Be cautious with texts - IRD only sends messages from four-digit codes, not
regular phone numbers.

POV: The job market is hard and competitive at the moment, but don't settle for less than you deserve and if an advertisement asks for a photo to be sent with your cover letter, just know this is actually deemed somewhat illegal and should raise red flags for you.

Unless you're applying to be an actor or model, your looks, age and race should not be a deciding factor as to your suitability for a job.

This is the 21st century....there are some companies still living in the dark ages.
