TV Licence warning: New email scam targets unsuspecting Britons - ‘beware!’

One Briton wrote: “Don’t follow any links, and try not to open them. Be wary of TV Licence scams – they are very convincing.”

A second said: “Had two ‘your TV licence will be cancelled’ scam emails yesterday. 

“They’re out in force, they can look real, be on your guard!”

And a third commented: “Received an email purporting to be from TV Licensing saying direct debit had been stopped.

“Said to follow link on email to set up new direct debit and check bank details – beware, people.”

For those who have already entered personal details on a suspicious website, TV Licensing encourages individuals to reach out to Action Fraud.
