2 yearsSomeone called saying they were from a company dealing with card machines and asked about the type of machine I currently have at my shop.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be my card provider, but they started asking loads about directors and employees at my company. Definitely seemed dodgy. I'd steer clear of that one.3 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today. I answered with a simple "hello" and they just hung up on me! Bit funny really, I enjoy stringing these scammers along. While they're chatting to me, they ain’t bothering any pensioners or innocent folks. Judging by the comments here, they seem like one of those proper life-sucking scammers.4 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with my card company, but they couldn’t even say the right name of the person they were after. Definitely felt like a scam to me. Such a load of rubbish!6 yearsI got a call too, from someone saying they were Sally Owens from the Inland Revenue, but the number that popped up on my phone was 020 3992 9989.Sally OwensInland Revenue6 yearsToday, I received a rather dubious phone call from someone claiming to be from HMRC, a right charmer they were! The bloke tried to intimidate me and shake me down for some cash. We ended up having quite the fiery exchange, and he abruptly cut off the call once he twigged that I was onto his little game. Outrageous, really!HMRC6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC on my mobile, and they were threatening me. Definitely a scam!HMRC6 yearsGot a call from HMRC but it was an automated message, really threatening stuff left on my answerphone.

Total scam alert! Best thing to do is block and get rid of it right away.Sally Owen6 yearsThis number, 01615213262, is just using fear to trick honest folks. I wish they'd focus their sneaky scam tricks on those filthy rich dodging their taxes instead.

Best thing to do is just ignore it and block the number straight away.HMRC6 yearsGot a call saying it was from Inland Revenue, but that doesn't even exist here in the UK. Definitely a scam trying to sound official.Inland RevenueUK6 yearsGot a phone call from someone saying they were from the Inland Revenue - kept hearing this scary automated warning message. Felt pretty dodgy if you ask me.HM Revenue6 yearsGot a call from what they said was the Tax Office, sounded like a recorded message - I just ended the call straight away.Tax Office6 yearsMy 80-year-old mum almost got scammed by someone called ‘Sally Owen’.

They said I or my solicitor needs to ring them back - seems like a dodgy scam to me.Manchester6 yearsJust had a call from some so-called tax office investigators, total scam! Honestly, why don’t these people find a real job instead of messing with others? Such a waste of time!HM RevenueCustoms6 yearsAbsolute nightmare! These lot are proper dodgy, claiming they work for the tax office and all. Had me nearly in tears with their nonsense!HMRC6 yearsI just don’t get how these con artists manage to keep pulling this off without getting caught!6 yearsWhat a bunch of absolute numpties! Acting like they're from HMRC, how daft! I tried giving them a bell repeatedly just to let them know what a bunch of plonkers they really are!HMRC6 yearsI received a rather alarming message, claiming that either I or my solicitor needed to return their call urgently, or risk legal ramifications. They alleged to be from the Inland Revenue, but I'm rather sceptical about that, to say the least.Inland Revenue6 yearsGot a call from some dodgy American claiming to be HMRC, with a threatening voicemail. Definitely a scam.HMRC6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC, definitely a scammer trying it on.HMRC6 yearsThese calls have been coming through for ages, and honestly, I'm shocked they still haven't caught whoever's behind them.6 yearsSame here. I dialled back with the 141 code and ended up on Sally Owens' voicemail. Left her a message for sure!Sally Owens6 yearsHMRC calling? Seriously, who'd be daft enough to believe those lot? Must be mad!HMRCBlimey6 yearsGot a call from HMRC, total rubbish. Best to just ignore and block them straight away.HM Revenue and Customs6 yearsGot called by someone pretending to be HMRC, total scam! Don't trust it.HMRC6 yearsI got a call that my phone’s smart caller ID flagged as likely fraud, and I guess the phone companies get updates from people sharing these nuisance numbers. I didn't pick up, let it ring through to voicemail. Just like others mentioned, some Officer Sally Owens, speaking with an American accent from Inland Revenue, left a message. She said if I don’t ring back on 0161 521 3262, which she called her dept’s direct line, or if they don’t get in touch with my lawyer, I might face legal trouble. Said it was really urgent too. I've gone ahead and blocked that number now.Sally OwensHMRC6 yearsReally ANNOYING and INTIMIDATING: Got an automated call claiming to be Officer Sally Owen from the Inland Revenue. The message was full of threats like "urgent matter," "ring us immediately," and "prepare for legal action." This is now the third time I’ve found a message on my voicemail. Surely there's a way to block these sorts of calls from happening? It’s really getting on my nerves.ALARMINGSally OwenHMRC6 yearsI just had a chat with that number and told them to quit using it because we know it’s a scam. They didn’t have an answer and then told me to contact the local cops before hanging up. What a bunch of rubbish!6 yearsGot a call out of the blue telling me I'm meant to be arrested today. They said the lockdown meant I never got any notice in the post. Honestly, these lot should be behind bars themselves.6 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming to be officer Sally Owen, with a recorded message saying I supposedly owe the inland revenue. They said if I don’t contact them quickly, there’ll be some sort of action taken against me. Felt really dodgy, so I’m not bothering to call back.Sally OwenHMRC6 yearsReceived a dodgy call claiming to be from HMRC. I returned the call, but it was silent on the other end. I've now binned the number from my contacts.HMRC6 yearsUpon returning the call, I was greeted by a chap with an Asian accent declaring, "HMRC." It's quite easy to fall for this ruse. However, if you ring back using 141 to keep your number private, you'll find it redirects you to their voicemail. In my experience, they spoke of a business where I once served as Secretary, yet when I gave a fictitious name, they claimed they couldn’t share any details. I insisted they communicate in writing if there was anything pertinent regarding the business; I firmly do not entertain discussions about any business matters over the phone, especially from unknown callers. The irony? That business ceased operations over five years ago! I’ve now blocked that number for good. Be wary and do not divulge any personal information to the caller, as this is clearly a tax scam.HMRC6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC, but with a super fake American accent - total rubbish. Best thing to do is just hang up and block them straight away.HMRC6 yearsthese lot are doing 19 different tricks to fool ordinary folks. they don’t even bother talking themselves, just use those robot voice calls. honestly, we need some old-fashioned punishments like stocks so we can chuck stuff at them. they’re the absolute worst, the scum of the earth. how come our government or phone companies can’t put an end to this and catch the ones responsible? it’s such a disgrace!6 yearsGot a call from 01615213262 doing that same old HMRC scam again. I thought I'd blocked them ages ago, but somehow they managed to get through. I gave them a couple of seconds before hanging up straight away. This happened on the 7th of October here in Lowestoft, Suffolk. Just a heads up to everyone, watch out for these lot!HMRCLowestoftSuffolk6 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be HMRC. Total scam, so I just blocked the number straight away!HMRC6 yearsGot a robo call supposedly from HMRC, basically told me to call back or I'd have to "face the consequences." Total scam, be careful folks.HMRC6 yearsGot a voicemail from someone saying it was Inland Revenue and if we don’t call back or hear from our solicitor, legal action will happen. Sounded like an American lady on the message, so I reckon it’s another scam. Definitely not calling back.6 yearsgot a call with the same threat about paying some tax or they'd drag me to court. just blocked the number straight away.6 yearsI got a call saying they've begun legal action against me unless I pay what I supposedly owe. Definitely don’t hand over any cash to them.6 yearsMy elderly mum, who’s about 80, just got a call about some tax stuff and they started threatening her with court if she didn’t pay up. Quite worrying really.6 yearsI got a call from 01615213262, and the person said they were from the tax office, claiming I owed a load of money in back taxes. I don’t owe anything at all, but because I struggle with depression, it really freaked me out and made me panic badly.Inland Revenue6 yearsWhat a joke of a message, all pre-recorded and trying to sound threatening like they mentioned. Can't take it seriously at all!6 yearsThis has gotta be a scam, best to just block that number.6 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be HMRC, sounded like a proper scam. Definitely put the phone number on block straight away.HMRC6 yearsGot a call from this number, and it was some bot saying it was from HMRE telling me to call back or I'd have trouble. Obviously, I ignored it and didn’t bother calling them.HMRC6 yearsProper dodgy scam call this one, best to just block and not pick up.6 yearsClaimed to be from the tax investigation team. I ended the call immediately.6 yearsI received a rather alarming voicemail from what sounded like an American robot voice, claiming it was an urgent matter from HM Revenue and Customs. I decided not to return the call and promptly erased the message.HM RevenueCustoms6 yearsReceived an automated call claiming it was an urgent notification from HMRC. I'm quite sceptical, to say the least!HMRC6 yearsI received a recorded message claiming to be from HMRC. It mentioned that either I or my lawyer should return the call, otherwise we might have to deal with some serious legal repercussions.HMRC6 yearsgot a call from a bloke claiming to be from hmrc saying i owed loads of dosh. he reckoned there was some legal trouble going on and tried to read me some ‘affidavit’ stuff down the phone. then he said i needed to sort an appointment to cough up more than £4000 for unpaid taxes. when i said sounded dodgy and like a scam, he just hung up after telling me to ‘do as he says’. total nonsense!HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (0161 521 3262)
