SCAM: Parking Notice linked to compromised Wordpress site
« on: February 08, 2017, 04:05:36 AM »
We have seen a fair few of these of late, they are FAKE!  Think about it, how would a parking firm have your email address from your car reg number?   

To make it even sillier for me,  I don't have (and never have had) a car nor do I drive!

The link in the email (which I have removed for your safety) goes to a compromised Wordpress website, and if you went there who knows what you might pick up. I can pretty much bet it will include some form of malware!
