DoolinDalton Posted April 20, 2020 Report Share Posted April 20, 2020 Tv licensing (aka Capita Business Services) are a bunch of con men anyway, so it wouldn't suprise me if the e mail was from them trying to con more money out of you!

guinty1 Posted April 20, 2020 Report Share Posted April 20, 2020 This is a scam, I got the same type of e mail last week, even gave my acccount number. Logged on to my account (but not through their email) none of the details they stated in their email matched, including the account number. Deleted it. Never click on any link on any of these types of emails. If in doubt Log onto the genuine companies web page and check to see if there is anything amiss. Paypal one is very common at the moment, got the same e mail 8 times in one day saying there was suspicious acitivity on my account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
