Thread: WARNING ! Buying with a forged license

The person pictured on the altered/forged Firearms Licence recently purchased a pistol, magazines and several hundred rounds of .38 calibre ammunition from a licensed Whanganui collector. He purchased the pistol using cash ($850) and showed a licence with his photo inserted in the name of Trevor Williams JOHNS to the seller who took this photocopy.

The same person has also purchased a pistol in a similar transaction in Tauranga using a licence (same person pictured) in the name of James Michael YATES.

If anyone knows the name of the person in the photograph please contact D/Sgt Glenn TOY 021 1915451.

Please advise your dealers and collectors to be on alert for fraudulent cards. The frauds are easy to spot if you look for a true hologram, and on the later cards, the clear core clear areas.

And no this isn't an April Fool's joke, message from Pistol NZ & NZ Police.
