Thanks for the detective work Tim, I might forward the details onto the cops (although if they gave a shit they could easily find them I'd suppose). Interesting post script, I received an email yesterday from TMS, they said it was a misunderstanding and that they mis-identified my number plate. I guess they decided I wasn't worth the trouble!!
Looks like the directors are all based overseas, several of whom are in NSW, so it's probably the exact same bunch as you identified earlier on, cf.

Just got an email from Auckland Airport. Apparently TMS does act for them. So they just farked up. Seems like amateur hour over there, at least the $150 stays in my pocket
Doesn't mean to say they aren't dodgy of course. The reddit forum would suggest they have form in this regard

@canefan plenty of people just pay them.
I got a 'fine' for not paying my toll for going through the tunnel.
I cant recall how much but was fuck all...I remember when I paid the toll it only showed my journey home, not to Auckland earlier in the day.
So I emailed them about it.
Turns out they had a glitch that day, it somehow recorded people going through but didnt register a toll for several days, which given you have pay with 3 days went unpaid (if you dont pre pay or have an account) so I got a fine.
I expect lots of people would have simply paid it.

Even the cops do shit like that. I got a warning from a cop for rolling through a stop sign down near Mercer a couple of years ago. He let me off with a warning but a few weeks later I get an infringement notice. Only thing is the car make and plate number are wrong. I dispute the notice (stupidly said I was there and was stopped but was told there would be no action), the reply came back to say tough shit just pay. Couldn't be bothered with court and stuff so just paid it. In future anyone comes to work who is a traffic cop is going to have a little surcharge on their bill. Should have just said it wasn't me and left it at that

@taniwharugby can't trust the coppers

@canefan wrong plate should void ticket immediately no?
“I don’t have this model car or plate”.
Discussion over?
You'd think so
