Direct Gov Text Beware

stollydriver · Jun 16, 2017

Just received a text from Direct Gov site advising me they owed me money from a previous bike sale road tax. The link takes you to a site for entry of your details to refund the monies. I contacted Direct Gov - they are aware of the scam that is currently running. DO NOT OPEN LINK AND DEFINATLY DO NOT FILL IN FORM. DELETE IMMEDIATLY.

It's the contact via text that is the scam. Trouble is - the link that is on the text looks 100% genuine Direct Gov. They are fully aware of this scam.
