A common feature of this sort of scam is poor spelling and grammar - 'licence' is misspelt, they use 'there' instead of 'their', and 'inconvenience' is completely messed up.
Indeed, sadly though a huge number of people cannot spell/see errors in grammar and truly believe everything that arrives in their inbox as gospel. Even so called professionals fall for these things.
You may remember the "parcel scam" from @ 5 years ago where cards were left at homes claiming that a company had tried to deliver a package and the home owner needed to ring a number. It was a pemium line scam and thousands fell for it. The line was shut down and the offenders were dealt with years ago, yet several times since then warning emails have been doing the rounds and each new cycle has seen ever more ridiculous claims inserted as to the amounts you will lose if you call the (non existant) number.
This last Christmas the same email started the rounds, several local papers ran the story stating the police were issuing the warning which was simply not the case and on another forum I frequent a member that works for the DWP issued the same warning, he got it from the DWP's network managers/security staff who were warning all staff about this "new" threat. They failed to check the source or the obviously inaccurate content.
