With less than a month left until Christmas, the festive shopping season is well and truly underway.

With crowds swarming shopping centres across the nation desperate to tick off their holiday shopping list, Australians are increasingly turning to online shopping as an easier way to fill their stockings - placing them directly in the path of scammers, experts warn.

With more than 90,000 phishing scams and 17,000 online shopping scams reported nationwide so far in 2023 – already surpassing 2022’s numbers - experts are urging us to up our awareness and keep a watchful eye out as scam rates soar heading towards Christmas.

With three in four of all scams reported nationwide including some form of impersonation of a legitimate entity, experts are fearful of consumers falling victim to malicious actors, reaching out under the guise of a trusted organisation this holiday season.

This week is Scam Awareness Week, and Amazon Australia is partnering with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission to empower Australians to protect themselves against scams through education and awareness.

Joining David Braithwaite to discussing the most common scam tactics we need to watch out for, and how we can keep themselves safe and protected when shopping for presents and gifts, is Julia Stewart, Public Policy Manager at Amazon.

Have you given much thought to how you would escape your home in the event of a fire? Well, research from fire safety business Brooks Australia shows over three in five (64%) of Victorians haven't discussed an escape plan in case of fire with their family members!

The fire escape plan is on the back of every hotel room door for a reason, why would we not practise such vigilance in our own home?

A fire safety plan is essential for all Victorian households to ensure everyone gets out safely in the event of a fire with all parties reuniting in the same spot to ensure everyone is accounted for.

It’s a practice that all family members should be familiar with, and it is recommended to have multiple escape plans in place from each room.

And with parts of Gippsland battling fires and the fire danger period already beginning in the Wellington and East Gippsland shires, the warning to plan is timely.

Joining Gippsland Perspective host David Braithwaite to talk about it is Tony Talbot, a fire safety manager at Brooks Australia.

Eggs have cracked a new milestone with new research revealing that 18.9 million eggs are consumed in Australia every day.

The new data has been released to mark World Egg Day, an opportunity to celebrate the versatile and convenient humble egg with 13 essential vitamins and nutrients.

With one in three (35 per cent) Australians who typically cook dinner finding cooking a pressure-filled experience, it’s no wonder that the top three elements Australians prioritise when deciding what to cook dinner is (1) taste and flavour, (2) simplicity and time efficiency, and (3) nutrition. In fact, more than half (60 per cent) of Australians admit they are only willing to spend no more than 15 minutes cleaning up post-dinner, with one in four (26 per cent) only able to tolerate 10 minutes or less.

The research also uncovered that on average Australians have at least three meals on a weekly rotation. Generationally, Baby Boomers are the most likely to have a whopping seven meals on rotation.

Rowan McMonnies, managing director of Australian Eggs, was on Gippsland Perspective to talk about the research and World Egg Day.

Play is fundamental to every child, helping them develop crucial skills that benefit them both now and in the future. However, new data reveals we may not be giving Aussie children the amount of playtime they need.

New research from the LEGO Group reveals that children are spending just two per cent of their week playing. This is equivalent to just seven hours.

Through play, children develop essential skills such as communication, confidence, teamwork and creativity. These enhance every other area of their development, learning and growth.

In today’s busy world, the benefits of playtime are under threat. Family schedules are packed with everyday responsibilities with working long hours and chores proving the biggest barriers to family play according to parents. As a result, nearly a quarter of children in Australia (24 per cent) are playing for less than three hours a week. This current play deficit is a cause for concern for experts given the crucial role of play in shaping a child's cognitive abilities, overall wellbeing and most importantly, in them having fun.

World Play Day presents a unique opportunity to bring people of all ages together using the superpower of play to turn the ordinary

into the extraordinary.

Troy Taylor, Vice President & General Manager LEGO Australia & New Zealand, spoke on Gippsland Perspective about World Play Day and the new data.
