MEMBERS’ COMMENTS:-
FIRST:- A DVLA Scam
Hi Jeff
This is the second time I have received this email. I have deleted the it, as I know it to be a scam.
Regards
Richard
Thanks Richard – it follows the standard format
Not personally addressed - It is addressed to his email
Reason for email - It says Payment for Car Tax has failed
Inducement - He has 5 days to pay
Threat - If he fails – they will issue proceedings
Click on the LINK to complete payment details !!
NEXT:- A delivery scam – with a difference:
Hi Jeff
Just another one to add to the list.
Kind regards
Yvonne
Yvonne forwarded a copy of an email sent to a large number of people, with the request to send it on to everyone you know. It details a scam saying that you get e note through your door, to say they tried to deliver a parcel, but you were out, so please phone for an appointment for re-delivery. The email goes on to say the call is to a premium rate number and you will be charged hundreds of pounds for the call.
This is a double scam ! There is no such thing as a premium account which will charge you that much. These premium rate types of scare scams, have been circulating for years. It is a form of cyber terrorism, to make us afraid, to raise our anxiety levels, to keep us in a continual state of apprehension and distrust of everything and everyone !
Anything which says – ‘send this onto everyone you know’ – should be binned immediately.
Can I also add – if you are forwarding warnings to large numbers of people – use the ‘bcc’ function in your email. This sends the message to everyone listed, but hides all the email addresses, from everyone else, who receives it. No-one, can see anyone else’s email address. Some people, may not be happy with you sharing their email address with all and sundry, without their express consent – and – if the next person forwards the message to another group, that group are also visible to each other - and - all the email addresses in the original email are still visible !!
NEXT:- Another Council tax scam:
Hi Jeff,
Yet another phishing scam email ...
David
The message is not addressed personally
It details £155 Council Tax overpayment
He only has 3 days until 27/11 to claim
Or the money will be lost
Click on the link – which looks reasonable – until you hover your curser over the Link. Then you can see it is not going to the same place !!!!
DON’T LET IT BE YOU – BIN IT
NEXT: More feedback re the Post Office scam:
Hi Jeff
I also had the scam sent to my e-mail. It seems a rather amateurish affair. I was immediately suspicious because I wasn’t expecting any deliveries, but also the e-mail had no Post Office logo and on the line showing the sender. Not only did it say Post Office, but also the e-mail address of ‘a.khalil’ !
Regards
Roy
Thanks Roy
