Report COVID-19 vaccine scams or misinformation
-----------------------------------------------
It's important to stay safe during the COVID-19 vaccine roll out.

COVID-19 is a hot topic at the moment, and some may use it as an 
opportunity to scam people or spread inaccurate information. Help us 
stop these campaigns. If you have experienced or are aware of COVID-19 
scams or misinformation, please email us with all the details you have 
through the link below.

Reporting it: covid at ops.cert.govt.nz


Reporting a COVID-19 scam

For email scams please:
* Forward the original email, including any attachments (screenshots are 
not very helpful - but fine if that is all that is possible). This will 
allow us to investigate any hyperlinks etc.
* Include any further details you're aware of regarding the scam.
Once you have done this, you can block the sender and delete the email 
from your system. We will come back to you with further advice.

For phone scams please include:
* the telephone number the call came from (if possible)
* the telephone number of the person who received the call (this will be 
treated in confidence)
* the date and time of the call
* a brief explanation of what the caller said

platform (for example, Facebook or Twitter).
