Trademe survey. Careful
Scam Survey
What do they look like?
The survey will ask you for some basic questions to appear legitimate.
They'll offer a reward for completing their survey.
They’ll lure you with something valuable, such as an iPhone or cash reward.
To claim the reward, they'll usually ask for your shipping information and credit card details to "pay for shipping".
Bear in mind that many businesses send out legitimate surveys. Always be conscious about what information they're asking for, and if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Emails from Trade Me only ever end in '@trademe.co.nz' and '@email.trademe.co.nz'. If it's not one of these, it's not us.

And they’re once again reminding everyone: please don’t light fires when it’s windy.
Central Otago will move into a restricted fire season from 1 December 2025, which means anyone planning an outdoor fire will need to apply for a permit and plan ahead.
So we’d love to ask you — how do you make sure you’re being fire-safe at this time of year?
A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟
I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?
