Reports on phone number 01226697940
8 yearsI've just received a rather dubious voice message purporting to be from a 'Lisa Williams' at HMRC, and it definitely set off alarm bells. The message warned of severe legal repercussions if I didn't ring 1226697940 immediately upon hearing it. Strangely, the number was missing the initial zero, which struck me as odd. To top it all off, it concluded with a rather cheerful 'Blessed day', which felt out of place given the grave nature of the claim. This was really my first contact about what was framed as a serious legal issue, making it all the more suspect!Lisa WilliamsHMRC8 yearsGot a call pretending to be from HMRC, but it was a scam.HM Revenue and Customs8 yearsGot a voicemail from this number and honestly, it was pretty creepy, just like other folks have mentioned. But from what I know about HMRC, they usually send plenty of letters before they even think about leaving voicemails like that. Plus, the message didn’t say who it was actually meant for in our home. Definitely a scam, and seriously, phone providers should really step up and block these kinds of calls.HMRC8 yearsI just received a rather concerning message from a number claiming to be the Inland Revenue. They mentioned something about a significant lawsuit filed against me. Naturally, I tried to call back, but there was no answer. The name they left was Lisa Williams. Is this all just a scam? I'm feeling quite anxious about it.Inland RevenueLisa Williams8 yearsGot the usual recorded warning about legal stuff again. I dialled 1471 to see who called, then rang the number back. After a bit of messing about, someone answered saying they were from ‘HM Customs’. I asked why they were sending dodgy messages to people who might be easily scared - then they just cut the call.HM Revenue and Customs8 yearsGot a phone call from someone claiming to be Lisa Williams, with a robotic voice pretending to be from HMRC. They were threatening me with costly legal trouble if I didn’t comply. Just like many others, it felt like one of those scam calls.HMRCLisa Williams8 yearsGot a call from some robotic voice that made me chuckle, especially when it ended with "Have a blessed day". It was supposedly from HMRC, can you believe it? Honestly, it’s worrying to think that an elderly or vulnerable person might call back and get tricked into paying to stop these fake legal threats. Proper scammers if you ask me.HMRC8 yearsLike many others here, I got a call supposedly from HMRC about some big legal action against me. I hung up pretty quickly, but I’m sure it’s the kind of thing that could really scare vulnerable folks. The automated message came through at about 12:20 this afternoon.HMRC8 yearsI got a call supposedly from 'HM Taxes' warning me about a serious fraud case and saying I had to ring back straight away. The automated message gave a ref number and mentioned someone called Lisa Williams. Normally I just ignore these scams, but this one felt really creepy. For starters, they didn’t say my name at all, and weirdly, it finished with “Have a blessed day”! My old neighbour, who once fell for a phone scam, would’ve been absolutely terrified to get a call like that!HM Revenue and CustomsLisa Williams8 yearsI received a call claiming to be from the tax office, insisting I was in serious trouble and urging me to return their call immediately. At 75 years of age, this is the second such call I've encountered just this week. Thank goodness I didn't call them back!8 yearsI just got a rather unsettling automated message that genuinely freaked me out.

They insisted this was our final opportunity to return their call.Customs Excise8 yearsGot a call from this number early this morning, about 8:28 am. The person said they were Officer Leetham from HMRC and warned me about a big lawsuit against me. They insisted I needed to call back immediately or face major financial and legal trouble. Before hanging up, they said something like ‘Have a blessed day’, just like I’ve heard on other scam calls. Interestingly, my phone showed it as an international number, but the area code 01226 is actually for Barnsley. It worries me that this kind of thing might trick more vulnerable folks into giving away their banking info.LeethamHMRCBarnsley8 yearsGot a call today from 01226697940 on the 13th of March, left a message on my answerphone. Felt a bit creepy, but I’m pretty sure it was just one of those scams.8 yearsMy 76-year-old dad got called by this exact number and it really upset him. The voicemail said there’d be legal consequences if he didn’t ring back straight away. They claimed it was urgent, related to HMRC, and something ongoing for 7 years.

When I asked what the call was about and who they wanted, they asked for my wife using her maiden name, which she hasn’t gone by in about 4 years. Then they said they were calling from Parliament Street in London. When I kept asking more questions, they just hung up on me.HMRCParliament StreetLondon8 yearsMy mum got a call from someone accusing her of fraud and saying she has to pay back money straight away.

I really hope she never goes through something like that again.8 yearsTonight when i went to see my grandad, he told me some worrying stuff about supposed tax fraud he’d done.
