My mum has received 2 emails from this person. I have traced the originating IP address to 66.7.149.168, which is in the location of 55 E North Lane, Conshocken, Pennnsylvania. If I knew who to pass this info to, I would.

one of the best spam emails i've received from TV License. mMy only clue this was spam was the email address (root-smtp2.rapidns.com) and I know that my license is paid annual not month.

Just had one of these stating my direct debit for my TV licence had been cancelled so I checked my bank and all is fine, quite worrying really as other people might panic and fall for it
