Phone number ☎️ 01616961042 👆 is reported as a persistent HMRC-related scam involving automated calls and voicemails threatening legal action or arrest over unpaid taxes. Callers often use fake identities, including names like Amanda Taylor, and pressure recipients to call back urgently.

Responding may lead to further nuisance calls or attempts to extract personal information and money. Users consistently advise against returning calls or sharing any information, recommending blocking and deleting the number immediately to avoid falling victim to fraud.

7 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming there’s a legal case from HMRC against me. Seems like the same recorded voice from last month telling me I’ve got an arrest warrant from HMRC. Total scammers!HMRC7 yearsGot a weird message that was all over the place, saying I needed to call back right away or there'd be big trouble. It mentioned some tax money I supposedly owed, which isn't true at all. Decided not to ring back - felt like it might just be a trick to get me onto a premium number.7 yearsGot a robotic message from someone claiming to be HMRC. Do NOT ring them back. Best to just delete it straight away.HMRC7 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be from HMRC, sounded really dodgy. Was clearly an attempt to con folks out of their cash. Definitely not to be trusted!7 yearsI got a robo call claiming to be Amanda Taylor from HMRC about something urgent that needed my attention or else there would be big trouble. They kept insisting I call the same number back they gave me. I never called, but there’s no way that was really HMRC.Amanda TaylorHMRC7 yearsGot a call from some robot with an American accent pretending to be HMRC, threatening me with legal action if I didn’t ring back. Total scam. HMRC always sends letters, they never call like that.HMRC7 yearsDefinitely a scam, so I just blocked the number.7 yearsTotally a scam, got a voicemail with a robotic voice. When I rang back, they asked for someone named "Simon".Simon7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC, saying I owed them money and had to pay right away. I’d never expect a real HMRC call - they always contact you by post at your official address. Best thing to do is just block the number.HMRC7 yearsGot a call from 01616961042 but didn’t pick up. They left an automated voicemail claiming to be Amanda Taylor and said it was urgent, warning of serious consequences if I didn’t ring back. When I returned the call, some Asian bloke answered saying he was from HMRC. He asked for my name and then told me to stay on the line while he got some “papers”. That sounded fishy to me - who in tax office these days deals with papers, it’s all digital now. So, I just hung up. Have marked the number as spam now.Amanda TaylorHMRC7 yearsClaims to be from HMRC, but I reckon this is a scam.HMRC7 yearsGot a call pretending to be from HMRC, but it was totally fake.

Definitely not legit.HMRC7 yearsIt’s a scam, HMRC won’t actually ring you up. Total con artists!HMRC7 yearsThis morning at around 8.55, I got a call on my cell from the number above. The voice was a recorded message speaking with a North American accent, claiming to be from HMRC and telling me to get in touch with a solicitor right away about some unpaid dues. Just out of curiosity, I dialled the number back. A guy answered with a really thick Asian accent and asked for my name. Naturally, I didn’t give it to him, and he said he'd only speak if I told him my name, then promptly ended the call.HMRC7 yearsGot a robocall today from 01616961042, some Amanda Taylor saying I was getting sued. Must be a scam or something.Amanda Taylor7 yearsGot a call pretending to be from HMRC. Please don’t ring them back or share any personal info, it’s definitely a scam!HMRC7 yearsJust got this message moments ago. It kicked off right in the middle of a sentence, which seemed a bit dodgy and not at all personal - my name wasn't even mentioned. HMRC aren’t gonna use an American accent voice, and they surely wouldn’t send a message all scary like that. Plus, I’m on top of my taxes, so no worries there. If there was an issue, they’d definitely send a proper letter through the post! Seriously, don’t ring this number back, folks. They'll just mark your number as active and then you’ll be swamped with even more junk calls!HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (0161 696 1042)
