Default Greater Manchester Police Speeding NIP Scam

Be aware that all is not as it seems if you receive an NIP by email from Greater Manchester Police, I've had 2 today:-

Obviously don't click on any links, delete and advise Action Fraud.

A friend got one today, the notice of speeding and a letter to follow to identify the driver. It's no doubt a scam but, it must have peoples details to carry out the scam.

They don't have any details other than the email addresses they've harvested by various means.
