7 yearsSCAM WARNING I’ve already reported this to Action Fraud. Don’t bother ringing them back, just file a report instead. Here’s the link: https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/FRAUDAction Fraud7 yearsThese idiots are unreal, honestly. With all the rules like GDPR, how come the police don’t do anything about these numbers? Feels like they’re just allowed to keep harassing us!7 yearsWhat scum. Why aren’t the police doing anything about this? You’d think they could track these idiots down.7 yearsYou either stand up to them or just complain and let them have an easy go at scamming someone else next time.7 yearsTotally a scam, don’t trust it!7 yearsUsing unlimited minutes on multiple phones with auto redial apps and not blocking my number has been chaos. Most scammers don't respond when I try to ring back, but this group always picks up no matter what number they're calling from. They hit thousands every day, but I reckon if just one person stood up to them, it might actually make a difference.7 yearsI received a recorded voicemail from a robotic voice claiming to be from HMRC, warning of dire consequences if I didn't return their call. I chose to disregard it entirely.HMRC7 yearsIt seems the number’s off for now... but if you ring again later, it usually picks up.7 yearsDont fall for this one it’s a scam! Got a call from some robot with an American accent saying it was HMRC. Just hang up straight away and dont waste your time.HMRC7 yearsDodgy call. Got this recorded message in an American accent, pushing me to ring a certain number. Total scam.7 yearsGot a recorded call warning me that if I didn’t ring back, they’d take legal steps against me. Honestly, it was pretty intimidating and I can see why folks might get a bit scared hearing something like that.7 yearsIt’s clear that standing up to these scammers actually does something... that’s probably why this site is full to the brim with bogus scammer posts. Honestly, someone needs to take action here - this lot could easily target someone close to you.7 yearsCalled them back on a bunch of different numbers and spent about an hour telling them off for trying to con decent folks. Every time, a different person picked up, giving you plenty of time to enjoy a good laugh while they shout at you in dodgy English. Proper way to brighten up a Friday evening!7 yearsJust like the first person said, I found it really unsettling as well.7 yearsGot a call supposedly from HMRC but sounded like an American bloke. When I tried phoning them back, the person was really cheeky and told me to shut up. Proper rude with no manners at all.HMRC7 yearsGot a call saying I owed HMRC taxes and if I didn't press 1, I'd be arrested. Classic scam stuff. Like the warning clearly states, you won't get arrested. Don't fall for it and definitely don’t send them any cash!HMRC7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC but had an American accent, threatening me to ring them back or they'd send solicitors after me. It’s the same old rubbish scam, but honestly, it’s not something to joke about since vulnerable folks could really get hurt by this. Someone needs to put a stop to it.HMRC7 yearsGot a call from an American voice claiming to be HMRC, telling me or my solicitor to ring them back straight away or there’d be serious trouble. Total rubbish, as HMRC always get in touch by post if there’s an issue. Don’t get caught out by these scammers!HMRC7 yearsGot a call claiming it was from HMRC telling me to ring them back or else, total scam, just watch out for this one!HMRC7 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from HMRC, but it turned out to be a scam. Definitely don’t ring them back!HMRC7 yearsYep, had the exact same thing happen. Pretty clear it’s just a scam.7 yearsLooks like they've pulled the plug on the number for now... ringing them back just throws a spanner in the works. This crew - Jennifer, Mark, Stephen and some bloke from Asia I can barely pronounce - they’re on it every day. They definitely get the meaning of getting interrupted. That’s me, really... I’m why they don’t run those 'press 1 to speak' scams anymore.JenniferMarkStephenAsia7 yearsGot a call from someone with an American accent saying they were from HMRC, saying it was urgent and not to ignore or my solicitor would be involved. Sounded dodgy so I just blocked the number. Definitely a scam, be careful!HMRC7 yearsWell done to whoever called them back a few hours ago! Seriously, people need to realise that messing up their scam actually causes problems for them. It really does make a difference!7 yearsGot a call from someone with an American accent saying they were from HMRC. I knew straight away it was dodgy, but I worry this kind of scam will trick some elderly folks with their nonsense.HMRC7 yearsHonestly, these con artists are such pains. Don’t ever call them back, just ignore.7 yearsGot a voicemail from some bloke with an American accent, pretending it’s from HMRC. They told me or my lawyer to ring them back or else there’d be serious trouble. Felt pretty dodgy to me.HMRC7 yearsBeware of an HMRC scam!
