NZ Police are aware of a scam where members of the public are receiving calls from what appear to be Police Station numbers.
These are not calls from NZ Police – we are aware and are investigating this. If you have had missed calls from what appears to be a Police Station number you can disregard them.
However if you have provided any personal details during a call matching this description, please contact your bank, then report to Police online.
Take the chance to upskill yourself on scam awareness, check for further information on the Netsafe website: https://netsafe.org.nz/
