    In a word, no. :D

    Want more reassurance? The thread you first posted this on is for example debt collector letters only and these posts will be moved.

    Start by reading up on the scam of PPC tickets, see these other threads on the board first:

    Do not even think for one second about paying a private parking company bogus PCN.

    HTH
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Hi mo2411,

    Welcome to MSE :hello:

    I've split your post out of the PPC Letters thread and into a new thread.

    Coupon-mad is spot on - ignoring these scammers is the best way to get rid of them - they'll bang on about taking you to court but won't actually do so because they never win (I'm still waiting to hear of a legitimately won court case...)

    If you get worried by any of their correspondence please post on here for reassurance and advice, we're happy to help :)

    Ignore.

    Expect some junk from them, then Roxburghe Debt 'Collectors' and then Graham White 'Solictors'. Then they will give up and go away.

    It's a scam.
