Blue Badge Scam Warning, Good Job I Checked....

[trt]

Had an email, that my B/B needed renewing, which it does, and a link to renew it on-line.

It had most of my details, so I filled it in, then when I got to the payment by credit/debit card section, it said it was £50.00.

I thought for a minute that they had increased the fees, then realized it couldn't be that much.

I phoned my local council B/B department, the charge is £10.00, not £50.00, and payment isn't taken till the B/B is granted.

Just thought I would let others know.

Not a new scam but convicing, pays to be aware.
