Phone number ☎️ 01294588040 👆 is reported as a persistent HMRC impersonation scam targeting UK residents through automated calls with American accents, followed by live callers often using South Asian accents. Callers falsely claim the recipient owes significant tax debts and threaten arrest or legal action, urging immediate call-backs on alternate numbers. Messages use official-sounding names and addresses but are fraudulent. Recipients are strongly advised to ignore, block, and report these calls to official channels like Action Fraud or HMRC directly. HMRC does not cold call or leave threatening voicemails. This number is consistently associated with intimidating tactics designed to extract money or personal information and should not be engaged with under any circumstances.

Got a voicemail from an American lady claiming I owed tax. I called the number back and an Asian man answered, warning me I could be taken to court or even arrested. It really scared me. Later, I realised it was just a scam. Best to just ignore this number.

Got a call supposedly from HMRC, Office of Clare Williams, saying I need to ring back straight away or face legal trouble. I know HMRC doesn’t do cold calls or threatening voicemails. I’ve already reported it to Action Fraud. Beware!

Got a voicemail from someone called Claire Williams, sounded like one of those American accent robocalls claiming to be HMRC and warning me about legal trouble if I didn’t ring back. Just ignored it and blocked the number straight away.

Just like others have said, I got a voicemail from someone pretending to be Clare Williams from HMRC, trying to scam me out of my hard-earned cash. What a joke!

Someone rang me up pretending to be from HMRC saying I owed them money. I told them I’d report it to the police and then just ended the call.

I got a really rude automated voicemail saying it was from HMRC, so I called back. An Indian woman answered, saying she was from HMRC at 100 Parliament Street in London. I knew it was a scam right away and just ended the call. Definitely don’t pick up or call back on this number - best to block it entirely.

I’ve just had a call from this number, purporting to be from HMRC, insisting they needed details from me to avert a court appearance.

I had a similar experience. They told me I owed £5000 and demanded immediate payment. They sounded so believable, I nearly fell for it. I just hung up. After that, a lady rang back claiming the police were coming to my place. Total SCAM!

Honestly, I just hang up straight away. It’s always the same lot trying to scam you. Nothing but dodgy callers, really.

My phone rang twice and I missed the first call. When I answered the second, there was a voicemail from a woman named Alice claiming to be from HMRC. She said I needed to ring her - or my lawyer - back urgently and warned not to ignore her message. The number to call back was a bit different but I didn’t note it down since I had nothing to write on. The voicemail sounded pretty scary, like they were threatening legal trouble if I didn’t get in touch. It wasn’t pleasant at all to hear something like that!

This guy from India called up saying I owed more than £5000 in tax to HMRC and told me to get my lawyer to ring him. I just said I was a lawyer myself and he totally freaked out and hung up straight away!

Got a weird voicemail from someone saying they were 'Officer Clare Williams with HMRC', warning me to call back or I'd be in serious trouble with the law. Total scam, definitely blocking that number.

Like others have said, it’s definitely a scam. Best thing to do is just block the number and get rid of it.

I got a call from someone saying their name was Alice Williams, which I later found out is a common fake name they use. They claimed to be from 100 Parliament Street, Westminster, trying to scam people. I’ve reported the whole thing to HMRC’s fraud department because it’s a nasty con. Honestly, just ignore these calls and don’t waste your time!

Got a call claiming to be from HMRC, saying if I didn’t ring back, I’d face court action and even get “executed” or something mad like that. Seemed totally fake, just a scare tactic to get me worried. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!

This definitely isn’t HMRC or any official governmental body - it’s a complete con! They’ll attempt to intimidate you by throwing around terms like Fraud or Theft. They claim that a court order is in the pipeline and that the police are on their way to nab you. HMRC suggests you should always look these numbers up online or get in touch using the contact information provided on the Government Gateway. Stay vigilant!

It came up as a law firm from Scotland, but when I answered, it was just a recorded voice claiming to be HMRC and telling me to call back. Definitely not something I'd risk getting involved with.

I ignored the call, but they went ahead and left an automated message claiming to be from HMRC, which was odd since the voice had a clear American accent.
