I had two of the TV license emails today (I renewed in Aug). Also had an email telling me one of my domain names was about to expire and would I pay them $80 to renew (it's due in January but not through them and it doesn't cost anywhere near $80) plus a couple of emails saying my phone had been hacked and to deposit a shed load of bitcoins into an account or the hackers would send pictures taken on my phone of me watching ---- to everyone in my email list. I get emails like this almost daily to one or more of my email address'
If any of you get any emails asking for money, even if it looks like a genuine email or it's from someone you know, always, ALWAYS check it and DO NOT click on the links!
Probably the same ones I've had. They send the email alegedly from your own email address to 'prove' that they have hacked you. Most people won't realise it's VERY easy to alter the 'from' email address to whatever you want.I’ve had an email threatening to show all my contacts a film of me taken with my webcam performing a solo “act” unless I pay.
Its like the scammers aren’t even trying anymore.

Your right the tv license is the biggest scam going!
The threatening letters with the red writing are quite amusing tho!
