https://www.bestadsontv.com/includes/image.php?image=s3%3A%2F%2Fbestadsontv.com%2Fthumbs%2F0fa7a.png&width=200New Zealand cyber scams increased 33% in 2023. Resulting in $198 million lost. Yet the human impact and scale remained unseen. CERT NZ (New Zealand Government Cyber Security Authority) created 'EXPOSED: A photography exhibition through the lens of a hacker' put a candid face to the problem for Cyber Security Week. Ten real victims of cyber crime gave us permission to capture their image. Not through a traditional shoot, but literally through their devices - when they weren't expecting it. Mimicking the uninvited gaze of hackers. By exposing victims, we exposed the dangers of online scammers. Reaching 4,792,225 Kiwi through our exhibition, OOH and all major news outlets.

Titled 'The Lost Voice', the spot tells the tale of a young girl and her fantastical floppy-eared friend, as they search high and low for his missing voice, before revealing a uniquely personal moment between a father and a daughter. The film is narrated entirely by the father, Dr. Tristram Ingham, who is an associate professor of epidemiology and a disability advocate from Wellington, New Zealand. He has facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), which causes progressive muscle degeneration that can ultimately lead to an inability to speak. The Personal Voice technology he uses to narrate the ad enables Dr. Ingham to preserve and continue to use his own voice well into the future.
