I thought it be useful to share this with you all.
Have just received an email supposidly from the TV license people telling you that your license has been unpaid threatening debt collection action.
We contacted TV licensing which has a recorded message about it ,  It is a scam.

Stay safe.
we also rescue rabbits and guinea pigs, grow own veg

There is another one around, an automated message supposedly from HMRC saying a 'charge has been placed on this address'.    Paul has had it at his business and I've had it at home.  We contacted our Accountants and they confirmed that HMRC would only contact you by paper (letter), never by phone or e-mail.  The call invites you to press 1 to be connected to your 'case officer' or you can phone them back on the number they give you.
