If you do receive this or any similar email please take advice from the real TV Licensing people at https://www.tvlicensing.co.uk/faqs/FAQ288 or simply delete it but don’t forget to tell family and friends about the scam.

Already entered your banking details on a fake site or in response to a phone call? Please talk to your bank immediately.
