    How to tell if it’s really ANZ

    ANZ says it will never:

    • ask you for your banking PINs, passwords or security codes
    • send you a link to log in to Internet Banking, so type anz.co.nz yourself
    • ask you to download software onto your devices
    • ask you to give anyone remote access to your devices

    ANZ’s Caller Check asks you to confirm a call inside the goMoney app. ANZ will never send a Caller Check request by email, text, WhatsApp or any other messaging app, so one that arrives that way is a scam.

    If you’ve already clicked or paid

    Call ANZ on 0800 269 296 straight away. The line is open 24 hours. If you are overseas, call +64 4 470 3142.
