Westpac scam warning

Peter from Kamo

Just received a scammer's email pretending to come from Westpac.
"Final Notification". The message was apparently sent from Sudan, or channeled via Sudan. There is a link in the middle of the message that looks like it leads to Westpac, but it leads to some site in China.

Just received a scammer's email pretending to come from Westpac.
"Final Notification". The message was apparently sent from Sudan, or channeled via Sudan. There is a link in the middle of the message that looks like it leads to Westpac, but it leads to some site in China.

They made a few grammatical errors, that are easy to miss unless you're looking out for them - it's actually 'well done' otherwise, it even has security warnings in the bottom of the email would you believe.

Do NOT reply to that, and don't click on the link in the message if you get one.

(Ironically, I don't even bank with Westpac, so it was a bit of a no-brainer for me to be on the alert).

Fire and Emergency New Zealand

Michael Chubb from Onerahi Volunteer Fire Brigade

Today 1st July 2017 marks the first day of Fire and Emergency New Zealand. This new organisation replaces the New Zealand Fire Service and the many different rural fire authorities that we had for many years.

Today 1st July 2017 marks the first day of Fire and Emergency New Zealand. This new organisation replaces the New Zealand Fire Service and the many different rural fire authorities that we had for many years.

The new organisation is a merger of all the rural and urban brigades. It will take some time to standardise all these brigades into one.

Really we at Onerahi Volunteer Fire Brigade don't expect to see a lot of change in what we do, but the new Act does recognise that we do more than just fight fires and are in fact an Emergency Service so addresses that gap in the old legislation.

Behind the scenes the path is laid for the organisation to improve even better in the services we provide and become a very efficient, responsive and world class Emergency Service.
