Expert Opinion
Reports indicate a surge in fraudulent messages masquerading as DVLA communications about vehicle tax issues. These texts often include suspicious links urging urgent action to dodge fines, mimicking official style to deceive recipients. While the site might appear polished, legitimate bodies like the DVLA never solicit via unsolicited links in texts or calls. Block and report such numbers immediately to prevent wider spread. Avoid clicking anything; instead, verify directly on the official gov.uk site or by calling verified DVLA lines. If you've engaged, monitor accounts for unusual activity and consider changing passwords. Staying vigilant curbs these phishing attempts effectively.
