MIL-OSI United Kingdom: Be on guard against scam parking fine texts

Source: City of Plymouth

We have been alerted to text messages claiming to be from ‘a local council’, in relation to parking penalty charge notices (PCNs).

Our parking PCNs are issued as a paper copy, either affixed to your windscreen or sent by post.

We would never issue a PCN via text.

Please report any suspicious texts you receive at www.actionfraud.police.uk. Do not click on any suggested payment links.
