Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
The DVLA Tax Refund text scam below claiming the recipient is due a refund of overpaid road tax, is being sent by scammers. The scammers' aim is to trick the recipients into clicking the link in the fake text, which goes to a fake and phishing DVLA website that steals personal and financial information.
DVLA does NOT send texts like this. They will never send texts or emails asking you to confirm personal or payment details via a link.
If you do receive a text message or email claiming to be from DVLA and is not certain it is genuine, always contact them directly first.
