A local person writes "I had two emails pretending to be from TV Licensing telling me they've been unable to process my direct debit for renewing the Licence and that I'll no longer be able to watch or will incur a hefty fine. I checked my real TV Licence online and the false one has these characteristics:
Sent by a person with a very foreign name.
Not originating from TV Licensing website, though it has a similar web address.
Shows the incorrect Licence Number.
Shows the incorrect expiry date.
The official website is tvlicensing.co.uk and carries a warning about scams such as these at the top of its page."
