A gusty time

 It has been windy but not as bad as forecast, yet. 

Here is a weather forecast, the weather this week is likely to be changeable and we may have rain with some sunny periods, there is still a degree of uncertainty though. I mean what is the point?

An update to the previous blog re TV licence etc. I forgot to add that we have done away with our TiVo box from Virgin Media too. I have disconnected all the TV aerials etc. 

So it's only Catch Up TV or DVD's etc. from now on. But although it's only been a few weeks we don't actually watch even those, it's either audio books from the library, the radio including internet radio or... books!

Scam again

After we cancelled our direct debit for a TV licence, we received a letter (actually before the next actual payment was due!).

But what was creepy was that we received an email from 'TV Licensing' 

 

I have erased our email address from the above screengrab.

Things to note that this is a scam. The sender address ends .co.uk.a - the extra .a is not valid uk email address.

The letter begins Dear our email address. The TV licensing already know our name, so again this is incorrect.

The TVL No. is not our TV Licence number and all the other numbers are bogus too.

The date is in an American format - why would the British Biased Company use that?

BUT the insidious part is the final bit although the web link looks official the actual address is nothing like it and takes you to a totally different site and whilst I have not clicked on it obviously, I can guess that it looks official and will ask you to enter your details and bank details so that they can process your missed payment. Oh and take every penny out of your bank account at the same time.

Please if you get one of these emails, do not open it but forward it to your internet fraud department.
