Bad Advice On NewstalkZB
Just caught the end of the Nick Mills talkback show on NewstalkZB this morning(Friday, August 13) and a studio panel member seriously encouraged listeners to go onto a website (cogo.com) for a bit of amusement with the website enabling its acceptors to get relative info on their own personality and preferences such as which restaurant would suit them best. The panel member said people joining in would need to offer up their bank account number at which time Mills said that this seems dangerous and he wouldn't do it but the panel member reassured Mills it was all harmless and a lot of fun.
So I logged onto www.cogo.com... and it is a scam and a fraud and could do a lot of harm. Do not go into this website.
I have sent Rosie, the producer of this Newstalk ZB programme an email.
