A new type of scam, asking people to check their vehicle licence renewal, has surfaced.
The NZ Transport Agency released a statement saying an email asking those to renew their rego is being sent around.
It says if the email was genuine, it will include specific vehicle details, like plate number, vehicle make, and licence expiry date on the rego label.
The emails were coming from nzta.co.nz rather than nzta.govt.nz, which is the correct address.
The statement advises people whose email did not include specific vehicle details or people who are suspicious to not complete the online renewal transaction linked in the email.
The NZTA says if you think you have received a scam email, or unsure about anything to call 0800 108 809.
