Print a copy and keep it, just in case, but otherwise ignore it. If the time comes run with it all the way to Court :y

It's possible that your car has been cloned.

I agree, but no harm in CYA ;)

Especially as the 'temporarily unavailable' phone line is now normal.

Had a debate with MET Parking around Easter, about an alleged infringement in at a McDongals in January, but you couldn't ring them to discuss it and it got as far as their Debt Recovery agent writing to me before I was able to get McDongals to cancel the ticket.

It's been going around for months, it was on one of the rogue trader programmes months ago , no details equals scam they are hoping that it will scare people into paying. Ignore it.

I've not looked in to the law breaking by the Govt/Councils recently, but I very much doubt it's possible to legally 'serve' any kind of penalty notice by EMAIL.

Additionally, I doubt DVLA hold EMAIL addresses for registered keepers (I haven't supplied one), so how is the link between a car registration number and an EMAIL address established?

EMAIL = Scam every time.
