My son and I are really looking forward to finally being able to go and watch WRC in Auckland less than a month away


We bought some golden tickets after visiting a number of confusing Rally NZ websites (.com, org.nz and .co.nz), some of which are really suspect as links didn't even work and also comes with the "insecure" warning on chrome...

Any case, we eventually managed to buy the tickets and reserved the accommodation. We are now all set to go.

But just got this email from Olivia with a return email address at

This links to a Google forms database harvesting personal information.

It looks and feels very suspect, especially using the demanding deadline of tomorrow when only 2 emails were sent, both today and only a hour apart.

That being said, due to all the problems with the bookings and confusion regarding websites, it wouldn't surprise me either.

I will contact them telephonically if I have time tomorrow, however is this type of email due to poor IT system design or administration, spam or just a phishing attempt to harvest some poor car guy's personal info, knowing that he will be willing to enter personal information into Google forms in future when asked to....

Surely they could have done this better
