Like everyone else, you compare your letters to the letter-chain pictures. Find your letter, laugh and see what's coming next. Play snap with each letter till the scam fizzles out.

Clue: the letter-chain pictures are in a thread near the top of the current forum list, unlike this thread which is ancient. Gawd knows why you'd bump an old thread? Being on here is like reading one random page in the middle of a book and not reading the rest or even looking at the index...

We have so much info on here on this forum - threads from TODAY! - to help newbies understand and be ready for the letters.

See my signature if you aren't used to forums - just one click from here & you see all current threads here, most of which are about the 'fake PCN' scam. Second from the top, click on 'PPC letters & threats'.

1. Watch the Watchdog clip on there, and then

2. scroll down to the pics of your fave PPC's threatograms, then

3. Play a nice game of snap with each matching templated threatogram, then

4. If you like legal stuff and want to understand why PPCs are very unlikely to win any small claim now, read the links on this CAG thread.

5. Tell your friends & family, colleagues, strangers, everyone! about the fake PCN scam so they never pay one.

No private parking company (PPC) can actually issue a real fine or penalty on private land, retail car parks etc. Nor can they affect your credit rating nor send a bailiff round without the small matter of winning a Small Claim in Court first! And that won't happen.

The most that will happen is even more junk mail letters that you can ignore, over the coming months. The registered keeper gets the letters, so if that's not you then educate them about this well-known scam and show them the links & info we are giving you here.

Please read the current forum! See my signature to get there, one click away!

Ask yourself, if they had any authority why would they give you NOTICE of any legal action after going through the letter chain rather than just going for it ?

It would be like the Allies giving Saddam notice that they intended to liberate Kuwait !

"Notice of Intended Legal Action" is a completely meaningless phrase and should be ignored.

The final but more unpleasant threats usually include mentioning that, if the case goes to court, a county court judgement (CCJ) will be issued, that bailiffs will be appointed and that your credit rating will be ruined. For things to actually get to this stage, the car park owner would have to take you to court and win the case. Then, you would have to refuse to pay, to get a CCJ issued after 28 days. Then, you would have to still refuse to pay, to get bailiffs appointed.

But, they can't actually do anything, for the same reason that a blackmailer can't take anyone who didn’t pay them to court.

Continue to ignore everything you get from the PPC and their aliases. It does seem odd to deal with something like this by ignoring it. Soon, they will run out of empty threats and stop throwing good money after bad.
