Got a call from someone telling me I had an outstanding debt of nearly £5,000. They began shouting about police warrants, which seemed a bit dodgy, especially when they couldn’t tell me why I hadn’t received any bills or letters before this. My gut told me something was wrong. While still chatting to them, I quickly googled the number and ended up on this site. Cheers to everyone who left their experiences here - really helped me avoid getting scammed out of a fortune.

Someone pretending to be from HMRC rang me up and started threatening me with court if I didn’t pay up.

Somebody called saying they had to speak to me about an accident that I had nothing to do with. It turns out it was actually a computer pretending to be a real person. I reckon if you say 'yes', it puts you through to a live person. When I asked what accident, the call just rebooted. Then, out of nowhere, I asked if it was a robot (yeah, bit daft I know), and the call just ended straight away.

I got a call but they just ended it as soon as I picked up. There's nothing on my voicemail either. Had a look at this site and decided to block the number now.

Got a call from someone saying they were HMRC, left me a voicemail saying I had a warrant out for tax evasion. The caller, who sounded like she might have been of Asian descent, told me I owed about £2468 in taxes. She even gave me a badge number and a case ID, but it all felt really dodgy. The thing is, I don’t even file taxes the way she was suggesting. So I just ended the call and contacted the actual HMRC, who told me it was a scam and advised me to report it. These calls are really unnerving, especially for older people, so it’s important that people report them every time.

It’s happened again, about five calls in just a couple of days, and what’s freaky is they all came right after my missus rang HMRC! Makes you wonder if HMRC is really secure or if someone’s listening in on their calls? Either way, glad to see loads of folks are reporting these things online. It’s seriously unsettling.

Yet again, got this annoying call supposedly from HMRC today, really tiring now. Is there any way to block these calls without having to spend more on my phone bill? I can't really afford to pay extra just to stop these constant calls coming in.

Got a call from this number around 8:20 this morning. There was a voicemail saying it was HMRC. It felt dodgy, especially at that time of day, so I just ended the call.

I received a voicemail telling me to ring back or get a solicitor, so I called them. The man on the other end gave some nonsense about me owing £2,660 in unpaid taxes. I told the guy, who had a strong Asian accent and said his name was Sebastian Hunter, that I have been PAYE since 2010 and he should contact my company’s accounts department. Then he started saying there was an arrest warrant for me and my passport had been flagged. I’d just returned from Spain, so I didn’t believe a word he said. He got really rude, so I ended the call.

The police mentioned they handle calls like this quite often, so I wouldn’t bother ringing this number - it’s definitely a scam.

Just got the same call earlier, so I called back the number for Dennis Grey. When I rang, some guy claiming to be an officer named Seb Hunter answered. He sounded really threatening, going on about tax evasion and arresting me. He kept telling me to stop cutting him off and said he was recording everything I said. Honestly, do yourself a favour and don’t bother calling them back.

My dad’s 70 and got a call like this, saying he needed to sort something with a solicitor or bailiffs would turn up. I rang the number back but they just cut me off and now won’t pick up at all. I’m switching between loads of different phones just to annoy them back! Proper scumbags!

Got a voicemail from someone pretending to be HMRC, all serious and threatening, saying I needed to ring back or get a lawyer or there'd be big trouble. They ended with some rubbish like “don't ignore us, you owe money - goodbye and take care!” Honestly, who falls for that nonsense? But seriously, where on earth did they get my phone number from?

My 70 year old dad got a call saying the same thing about needing a solicitor or the bailiffs will show up. I called them back, but they just cut me off and now they refuse to pick up when I ring. So I’m ringing them from loads of different numbers to mess with them a bit! Complete scumbags!

Today I got a call and left a voicemail saying it was from HMRC, warning me about legal trouble if I didn’t respond. When I rang back, they told me I owed over £2000 in tax and had to pay immediately or else there’d be legal consequences. It’s totally a scam and just fraud. At first, it freaked me out, but then I realised it was all a load of rubbish.

Got a voicemail claiming it was HMRC calling. Bit odd since I didn’t think they’d use automated messages. I rang back and let the bloke talk for a bit. He said there was an arrest warrant against me, so I jokingly asked if he could suggest any safe places to hide and told him I’d hand over my bank info if he did. He ended up hanging up on me, which I found quite suspicious. Guess he had no idea where to send me then!

I always ring them back, and they really can’t stand it. I’ve done it around 50 times myself. One time, I even got told to go stuff myself, so there’s no chance that was actually HMRC calling.

Got a voicemail from a dodgy number, sounded like someone pretending to be from the tax office or something. The voice was all muffled and hard to make out. They were going on about legal trouble if my solicitor doesn’t get back to them. Pretty sure it's just a scam. I deleted it straight away and blocked the number.
