01216813300 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01216813300 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers posing as HMRC or Birmingham Crown Court officials, threatening arrest over fabricated tax evasion or fraud allegations. The fraudsters use intimidating tactics, demanding immediate payment via bank transfers or apps, often pressuring for personal and financial details. They frequently disconnect when questioned or asked for official documentation, and sometimes employ automated messages or multiple phone numbers to appear credible. Victims report stress and confusion, with some being contacted repeatedly. Genuine court or HMRC communications are conducted by letter, not aggressive phone calls. Users are strongly advised not to share personal information or send money, to block the numbers, and to report suspicious calls to official authorities. Awareness and caution can prevent falling victim to these scams.

These two numbers, +44 12 1681 3300 and +44 20 7247 7697, kept ringing my mum’s mobile early in the day. They told her she was facing arrest for not paying taxes and had to cough up cash within half an hour or they’d issue a warrant. It really upset her and brought her to tears. Luckily, I soon figured out it was a total con and we shut those numbers down.

My mum got a call from 01216813300 and 02072477697 early this morning. They told her she was going to be arrested for not paying her taxes, which really upset her and made her cry. They said she had half an hour to pay up or they'd send a warrant. I soon figured out this was a total scam, so we put a block on those numbers.

Got a phone call from someone saying they were with HMRC, saying I needed to get a criminal lawyer because I'd been dodging taxes. They said I had to pay a £3,200 fine right away or my bank account would get locked and I'd be arrested within 45 minutes. I told them I needed some time to think, even if it meant getting arrested. Then the caller abruptly hung up, shouting something about the police coming to arrest me.

They said they were from HMRC but I wasn't convinced. I kept questioning them and they didn't seem happy about it. I asked for some kind of proof but they just kept telling me I was being recorded. Then when I mentioned I'd only got 40p in my bank, they suddenly said they'd sort the whole thing out! Proper dodgy if you ask me.

Received a rather dubious call earlier. The usual drill: press 1, search up Birmingham Crown Court, “I’ll give you a ring back from this number,” “this conversation is being recorded,” and “you’re on the brink of being arrested due to a faux pas by you or a former employer.” They were keen to reassure me, saying, “Oh, don’t fret, we understand it’s not your fault.” Then it got interesting - they threw out the possibility of heading to court with the threat of five years behind bars and a hefty fine of £29,000. But wait for the twist! They offered a way out for the paltry sum of £1,980, claiming it’s refundable and you’ll get it back… you know, the usual spiel. While still on the line, I decided to do a bit of digging online regarding the number. Turns out, I wasn’t the first to hear this tale. So, I pulled out my recorder once they started discussing the nonsense of not having such funds available. When I mentioned I’d be sharing the recording with my solicitor, they casually replied, “Oh yes, of course,” and then quietly disappeared. Quite the experience!

I got a phone call saying I owed £1740 in unpaid tax and had to sort it out immediately. I was shocked and ended the call right away. Then she rang back, threatening to take me to court if I ended the call again. I told them to send me an official letter from the court, but then they just cut the call off. After looking up the number and reading some reviews, I realised it was a scam. Just a heads up to stay safe!

I got a call from someone claiming to be from HMRC, accusing me of fraud and said I had about 20 bank accounts linked to money laundering. They told me I had to download Wise and send them a penalty fee immediately. It sounded fishy, so I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

My daughter, who’s just turned twelve, received a rather alarming phone call today. The caller claimed that if she didn't cough up £2483, the police would be involved and they’d drag us to court. To make matters worse, they told her not to inform us and to ask for funds to buy clothes and other things. It’s utterly ridiculous and quite worrying!

I recently had a rather alarming call from 02082871522. When I picked up, there was a robotic voice claiming I was implicated in some sort of dubious HMRC activities. It then instructed me to press 1 to connect with a representative. A woman from an apparent call centre abroad subsequently picked up, repeating the serious allegations regarding a supposed arrest warrant issued by the Birmingham Crown Court. She pressed me for details about how I settle my taxes, insisting that I owed a hefty sum of £1980 that had somehow gone undeclared. To allay my fears, she stated she was calling from a local Birmingham number, 0121 681 3300, and even suggested I search online for verification of the arrest warrant. Naturally, I did my own quick investigation on the 0121 number, only to discover it was linked to a completely unrelated entity. When I confronted her with this information, she promptly disconnected the call. Honestly, it left me in a state of anxiety for a good five minutes. Just a heads up, people-these lowlife scammers are out there, so stay vigilant!

I received a call purporting to be from HMRC, much like others have mentioned on this site. The caller insisted that I owed a staggering £1900 in taxes, threatening that my bank account would be frozen and I could face arrest if I didn't settle it swiftly. The conversation was quite a barrage; she spoke over me continuously, and as soon as I mentioned I'd ring HMRC directly to confirm, she abruptly terminated the call. Her manner didn’t convey any sort of intelligence you’d expect from a legitimate HMRC representative, which raised my suspicions about it all being a scam!

I just received a rather alarming call from this number, with the caller asserting that a warrant has been issued for my arrest due to alleged tax evasion. Honestly, I should have anticipated this! They mentioned I supposedly owe £1900, threatening me with five years in prison and a staggering £29,000 fine if I don’t pay up. The call commenced with an automated message that seemed relatively convincing, but then things got fishy when I was connected to an “officer” from HMRC. This so-called officer, who happened to be a woman, asked if I could transfer £500 into my account, insisting that doing so would magically result in a refund of the £1900. Quite dubious, don't you think? I also couldn’t help but notice the chaos in the background; it was quite loud, and I could distinctly hear several men speaking in an Indian language, which was a dead giveaway that I was speaking to a typical call centre masquerading as Birmingham's criminal court... what a farce! The tale gets even more ridiculous, but I called their bluff and played the part of the oblivious fool for the remainder of the conversation. Take heed, folks: DO NOT engage with these scoundrels or hand over any of your hard-earned cash! I nearly fell for their tricks... absolute toerags!

When I asked how I could verify who they were, they rang me back from 01216813300. They went on to say I was being accused of tax evasion and that all my assets were frozen. Luckily, my partner was nearby and told them to put it all in writing. Right after that, they just hung up. Watch out for this, it seems dodgy.

I said I only had £10 left, and I was in Halifax anyway. They didn’t want to end the call, kept pushing me to find the money quick, even suggested borrowing from friends or family because it was some kind of urgent situation.

This number rang me up claiming I'd dodged tax for three years and that the police were on their way to arrest me. I told them I'd only been living here for half a year and only started working a couple of weeks ago, so I couldn't possibly owe £2289. I said I'd get my solicitor involved and the person on the phone begged me not to tell anyone. It's definitely a massive con. Be careful, guys. It sounds like a well-planned scam because while they were chatting to me, I could hear loads of other people in the background trying the same trick on others.

Today, I had an unexpected phone call that left me rather puzzled. It appears they've managed to snag my information from Facebook, where my old surname and married surname are listed, despite the fact that I only really use one name. The call originated from a mobile number and started with a rather robotic recorded message. I pressed 1, thinking I might connect with a real person, and lo and behold, I found myself conversing with someone from their team. There was a distinct Asian accent; I couldn't quite place it, but it was definitely noticeable. When I hesitated to share any personal information, she assured me that she would ring back shortly. Quite the bizarre encounter, if I may say!
