The DVLA has not sent any such e-mail, so if you get one delete it immediately.

This is a copy of the e-mail that is circulating:

From: DVLA

{Fake link}

Drivers that refuses to upgrade his or her details within two weeks of receiving this verification e-mail will lose his or her driver's License and will have to take a fresh driving test.

We sincerely apologise for any inconviniences this might have caused you.
