🚨A timely warning for NZ Superannuants this Christmas

Thanks Susan Edmonds for our chat today and for confirming my suspicions that there is no “Christmas bonus” being paid to NZ Super recipients - despite convincing scam messages circulating online.

Here are some quick ways to spot a scam:

✅ Be wary of unexpected “free money”
✅ Never click links in surprise texts or emails
✅ Government agencies will never ask for bank logins or passwords
✅ Urgent “act now” language is a red flag
✅ Messages encouraging you to “share with other pensioners” are almost always scams

Pause. Verify. Ask someone you trust.

One calm check could prevent serious financial and emotional harm.

If you have friends, parents or grandparents on NZ Super, please share this with them.

A simple conversation can make all the difference.

Superannuitants are being warned not to fall for a new scam.
