A scam

[abbobrom]

I taxed my van at the beginning of June this year and yesterday evening an e-mail arrived stating that my payment hadn't been cleared. They implied that my bank details may have changed and they would apply again in five days time. If my bank details had changed could I click on the link and reset them. They warned me that there is a £700 fine for non payment of road tax.

I checked my bank statement and the payment went through the same day.

BE WARNED.

I had a text message saying that a named person had been added to my NatWest mobile banking data, with a link inviting me to check..... I checked my account through my established links on my PC and they hadn't been added. Another one added to the autoreject list on my mobile phone...

I see that an Aston Villa fan has been scammed. He paid someone £2,000 for a final ticket that was advertised online. As soon as the money arrived the recipient disappeared. Very risky .
