Didn’t sound right, so I contacted the real HMRC to check and reported it straight away.HMRCJames Anderson8 yearsGot a call earlier and there was a voicemail left. I was about to ring back but decided to check online first - best choice ever! The message sounded a bit off, like something was cut out at the start, and it was just a robotic recording.
