Phone number ☎️ 01253670862 👆 is reported as a sophisticated scam using a spoofed Blackpool number to impersonate HM Revenue and Customs. Callers employ an American robotic voice claiming to be officials demanding immediate payment to avoid severe legal consequences, often threatening arrest or large fines. The scam targets individuals by phone, despite HMRC typically contacting via official post. Victims report repeated calls and significant harassment, leading some to change their phone numbers. Users are cautioned that this is an organised fraud exploiting phone number spoofing, and advise not to engage with or return these calls. Authorities should be notified, and vigilance is essential to avoid falling victim to these threatening tactics.

8 yearsSome robotic-sounding voice called me supposedly from HMRE, but it was clearly an American accent and felt fishy.HM RevenueCustoms8 yearsI was wondering how they manage to have a Blackpool number - it’s actually done through phone number spoofing, just look it up online. This happened to us just yesterday; someone’s been pretending to be us. Sadly, there’s not a lot that can be done once it’s happened. We've reported it and now we’re forced to get a new number because we keep getting nonstop calls from people saying they missed a call from our number, but it’s all scammers misusing it. It’s really made us more aware of these things, so please be careful out there.BlackpoolGoogle8 yearsGot a ring from this number earlier while I was sorting out some stuff with IRi, and I’m pretty sure it’s a scam.IRI8 yearsthis morning at around 8:15 i got a call from this number. the voice on the other end sounded like some american robot, saying she was jenny from the inland revenue. it was pretty clear it was a scam since the inland revenue never phones mobiles and they’d definitely check who they’re talking to before saying anything. usually they send letters to your home address, not emails or calls.JennyInland Revenue8 yearsdefinitely a scam here, but seriously, how on earth do they manage to get past on a Blackpool phone number?Blackpool8 yearsdefinitely a scam, no doubt about it, but how the hell do they manage to ring through on a number from Blackpool?Blackpool8 yearsseems like a total rip off to me, but seriously, how are they managing to make calls from a Blackpool number?Blackpool8 yearsSo, I kept calling back after blocking them, rang like 47 times till someone finally picked up.
