I've just received an e mail from DVLA licensing asking that I complete there web based form with my driving licence & credit card details within 72hrs or I'll lose my driving licence.

I noted the following grammatical mistakes 'licence' is spelt 'license' and 'their' is written there :fail

e mail from [email protected]. & here's a copy of the message banner

Any email, whoever it is from that has a log on link is always a scam.
 
Hmm, someone wants your proof of ID and bank account details?

Should be alright. :crazy:

For the first time in about 4 years the Windows technical team of Mumbai have started calling me again, regardless of where these people are located there should be some attempt to stamp it out given that they are simply thieves.

My Mum had a small bump in her car this week, the only people who know about this are the garage, the calls started yesterday from Indian call centres trying to push compensation claim advice on her. One muppet called 3 times in 20 minutes pushing really hard on an elderly lady - Shameless.
