Another Vehicle Tax Scam

December 17, 2020 By admin

A Member of the Neighbourhood Watch reports receiving an email that purports to be from DVLA, Vehicle Taxation. The email is shown below as a screen print  (so link is not active). The link actually takes you to a page, also shown below, that requires you to key in your vehicle registration. Well, out of curiosity, from behind a Virtual Private Network (VPN) I provided a rather unlikely and quite vulgar registration number. That registration number I was informed was not taxed (no great surprise in that!). Following the original email there are 3 more stages, the final stage asking for  bank details, also below.

So, please be careful when you check over your emails. Even though there are plenty of signs that this is yet another scam, spelling and grammar, you can bet that a few have been taken in. Thanks to our Member who shared and those of you who that have also shared  the many scam emails received during the course of this year.
