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.

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!8 yearsHonestly, I just hang up straight away. It’s always the same lot trying to scam you. Nothing but dodgy callers, really.8 yearsMy 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!AliceHMRC8 yearsGot a call from some robotic voice claiming I owed money to HMRC. Sounded totally fishy to me.HMRC8 yearsThis 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.
