Some people get away with these types of fraud. Some people seem to be very vulnerable to these fake emails. I sent a request to the fraudster asking how to set up a new none dd payment plan but, guess what, the email came back as undeliverable. There's a surprise!
Just noticed the email in my junk folder, had the same one last month, used the genuine logo, clever fake. Noticed the spelling mistake in the title, always a give away. Besides, a DD doesn't run out!
Had one three days ago... Scumbag
Yes it's fraud. Checked the from who address and knew straight away.daniel-fixitbay.comI'm now wondering if TV license data has been breached hacked? If not than somewhere has been hacked in regards to TV license and my email.But the above comment says they don't pay by direct debit.One thing is for sure and that's we all have one thing in common in the UK and that's 99.9% of us need to pay for a TV license.You could send this email out to thousands of UK email addresses and at least one of them will pay for a TV license.
Had email yesterday, knew it was a scam because I have never paid by direct debit.
I had the same email, the message does look very official but check spellings it soon becomes clear it is a scam.
Received the same email at 11pm Wednesday.I have not had a UK TV licence for 25 years as I live in France***SCAM***
I have had it twice now. Not very clever if you can't even spoof an email address or URL - come on Daniel, try harder!
