Beware of scammers! Some of them even leave fake positive reviews on here trying to seem legit. They pretend to be HMRC debt collectors to fool you and try to scam money.

Got a text pretending to be from BCM with a ref number asking me to ring a certain phone. Checked their official site and the number didn’t match at all. Looks like a scam, so watch out for this kind of trick.

I got a text from this number about debt collection, and I wasn’t sure at first. So, I rang them back on a different landline they have, just to check. They told me straight it was a genuine message, nothing dodgy.

This has all the signs of a scam to me. They leave voicemails using your actual name to sound legit, but don’t go calling them back. I’m super careful with my taxes and know that HMRC is the only official body that collects tax here in the UK. If you’re ever unsure about someone claiming you owe money, contact HMRC directly like I do. They’re pretty helpful and by law have to inform you about any debts and how they’re dealing with them. Scammers always try to come across as real and intimidating, so keep your guard up.

Got a call from some company named BCM, mentioning a reference number and telling me to ring back. I have no clue who they are or anyone from that area code. Both me and my husband got the same message, but we don’t usually share our numbers, and if it was work stuff, they’d have called our office line. No idea where they got our personal digits from. Didn’t bother calling them back.

Loads of dodgy calls ringing me up recently, now with those messages telling me to ring a number with some ref code. Honestly, do they ever give up? I’m well fed up. Almost got caught out once with some tax claim I really owed, but their pushiness was insane and I nearly fell for it. Luckily, a mate from work grabbed the phone off me and told them to send a letter if they wanted to sort things legally. Proper scary folks they are. Just keep blocking them nonstop.

Got a message saying "bem trying to reach you about ref:83488xx, ring us back on 01142317534." I went on the HMRC site to check bem out, and it listed bem group limited with a different phone number, 08704106070. Seems fishy they only gave a ref number and never actually called me. ‘Trying to contact me’, yeah right. Definitely just gonna ignore it.
