Indeed. It seems the police knew exactly what had transpired
(with over 50 driver nominations being made mentioning the same
address).
I think your friend needs to plead guilty either online or by
post and keep as far away from a courtroom as he can.

Maybe not, but between you and the 'perp' that is what has
happened and as you can imagine it creates some frustration
among those trying to help.
Based on THE INFORMATION WE HAVE I agree with AF, pleading
guilty to the charge and not attempting any mitigation or
defence seems the best route, I can't imagine anything he could
(truthfully) say will make things better and with a scope to
make things a LOT worse.

UPDATE:
Hi All,
To recap since this post was last year - a relative foolishly
duped into paying someone to 'deal with speeding letter', he
gave the subsequent police letter to the same people, eventually
police wrote to him saying (paraphrased) "this isn't true, and
the address/ details you gave are from a nip farm". I
subsequently asked here for best suggestions/advice.
I wanted to send an update on this as promised, as others had
made contact that they were in the same position too. ('NIP
farms' etc)
I recommended the advice given here. He replied to the letters
with minimal information, not saying anything more than what was
asked/ needed.
His hearing was postponed once, but finally took place a few
days ago. He did not attend (as advised).
He was concerned he'd receive a ban or much worse ie a criminal
conviction.
He received a letter today giving him 6 points. I couldn't see
the offence code on the letter, but loaded the letter to chatgpt
which has said it is an MS90, inferred from the reference to
"section 172(3) of the RTA 1988". Nothing on the letter about a
fine.
Thanks again to those who helped, and all the best to anyone
going through the same. Lesson also to those tempted to use
those scammers - they left him high and dry and just stopped
answering his calls when sh*t hit the fan, despite all their
promises when he first paid them. He only mentioned it to me
when they had already replied to two letters for him then gone
AWOL, probably because I would've told him it was a bloody
stupid decision in the first place!

Further note to add - He has been fined £583 which wasn't on the
first letter he received (referenced above).
PS: His uber license is up for renewal, which he applied for a
few months ago - Unclear what will become of this with MS90.
