Email scammers lure motorists
These days scammers will try anything to lure in their victims and now we’re being warned by the latest, in the form of a speeding ticket.
Australian motorists are being told to be weary of a new scam email campaign pretending to be a ‘Penalty notice’ issued by a government authority such as the NSW Office of State Revenue.
The federal government’s Stay Smart Online website says the email and the website appear to be authentic, featuring convincing official design and branding and replicating official statements about the offence.
