Dodgy emails.

[Adrian Southgate]

So, i just got an email from the DVLA saying I'm owed a refund. I haven't taxed the leggie since this time last year and that was for six months and the Sierra is historic... dodgy email methinks...

I'll put the main part of the text in a second message here.

DON'T try and click it as I have removed the http part. 

Its got a little picture in the corner of the DVLA logo and everything.

I have received the same email on the memsec account and payments account which proves its dodgy as I never use the payments account for anything other than paypal.

If you get one of these, just bin it, its a fraud.

When I have worked out the scam i'll let you know.

I will pm you on something similar.
