SCAM ALERT !!!! TV license Email. Totally BOGUS

Just been onto the TV LICENSING people as we had a strange Email supposedly off of them.

Rang them, as Email stated our direct debit was invalid and to set up payment straight away on the said Email.

As we pay our license by CASH, immediately knew it was probably bogus, but believe me, it looked official.

Lady on the phone, confirmed lots of bogus Emails going out, so be warned people.

An that’s why “CASH IS STILL KING” :thumbup: knew it was iffy straight away

Also "off of them". The high grammatical standards of this board will slowly but surely be a thing of the past if statements such as this are left unchallenged.

I think we are in danger of missing th the most important point here.

That being: it should have been "and that's why" instead of "an that's why" in the final paragraph.

Maybe that should have given you a clue that it was a scam :-)
Licence is a noun, license being the verb.

You should have contacted The Please :-)
