Just got this email overnight. I don’t have a car but the email looks quite professional so I almost fell for it for a moment. This is just to raise awareness.
Also the email address they sent it from is gibberish, so I didn’t click or anything, but beware folks, I’m sure this landed in many people mailbox.

Scam de jour, safely ignore it.
Yes, same here, phishing scam. Report and delete.
But why is Parking Pay a scam then …?
And why did you almost fell for an invoice from a Parking App if you don‘t even have a car …?
I got that one too.
Just look at the senders e-mail address. Clearly a scam, yes.
Lol. Doubling every 24h. There’s no legal basis for that. So clearly a scam.
Should be boycotting parking pay anyways…
No, ParkingPay is not a scam, I use it regularly. But that E-Mail PRETENDING to be from them is in fact a scam.
Just look up the email-address. No regular business has such idiot email-address. Literally, precisely, exactly NO.ONE.
We really should consider taking some people the Internet access away.
I just got this email this morning. Email address was from a firm in Germany. Blocked and deleted.
If you don’t have a car you should probably not almost fall for a scam whose only target is car owners.
I doubt it’s from them, you have more time to pay any bill.
In general: if they produce time pressure like this it’s most likely never legit.
Pay now otherwise we double the claim is kinda ridiculous.
Thanks for the daily reminder that I really should become a scammer and never worry about money again

The email looks so professional you almost paid for parking for a car you don’t have? What!?? Are you for real?
I mean if I receive an email demanding to pay for private airplane maintenance fee, I would pay too, when it looks professional enough. Because my private airplane does need maintenance I guess?
Parking Pay+ is not a scam. You received a scam from someone pretending to be from Parking Pay+. That’s completely different.
