Latest virus - spam emails
A new version of the sober worm virus is in circulation. This virus targets your address book and spams your contacts list. As many people have "@trademe.co.nz" in their address books, some of these emails may look like they are from Trade Me - beware, they are not.
All correspondence from Trade Me will come from mailer@trademe.co.nz or noreply@trademe.co.nz and we don't send attachments. Don't open any attachments from addresses you are not familiar with, and delete any suspicious emails immediately.
Please refer to sites like (http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.sober.i@mm.html) for more information.
Light commercial vehicles category
Today Light commercial vehicles were removed from Trade Me Motors.
Now when listing your light commercial vehicle, you will be able to select the correct body type, such as "Vans" or "Utes".
