10 yearsI got a call from this number the other day, and the person on the line claimed to be from HMRC. They said I owed about £3000 in unpaid tax and insisted I pay up by buying £500 worth of iTunes vouchers. Total scam if you ask me!HMRC10 yearsOn 12th October 2016 just before noon, I received a call claiming to be from HMRC saying I was facing legal action. Honestly, I’m about as law-abiding with my taxes as it gets! Still, this fake number is up and running, so it could fool others into feeling anxious by how serious it sounded.HMRC10 yearsJust got a call from this number on my home phone - which is unlisted, so how did they even get it? They claimed to be from HMRC and said there was a legal case against me, told me to press #1 to speak to someone. Honestly, don’t answer or press anything, it’s clearly a scam. Best thing to do is block them straight away.HMRC10 yearsGot a voicemail saying HMRC is taking me to court. I didn’t call back. It’s a scam, don’t bother replying. Wish this nonsense would be sorted out already.HMRC10 yearsJust got a call not long ago from someone claiming to be HM Customs. Foolishly I rang them back, and they started saying I had an arrest warrant and the police were on their way in half an hour. I’m an elderly person with heart issues and only had cataract surgery yesterday, so this really shook me up. Please, don’t ever ring these numbers back. Wish I’d looked up the number first before calling.HM Revenue & Customs10 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, but I ended it before I pressed anything. I tried calling it back though and there was no answer, fingers crossed I don’t get any crazy charges. After a quick Google, I stumbled upon this site which eased my mind a bit. I’m gonna share the number along with the site link on Facebook so others know what’s up.Facebook10 yearsMy wife got a call from these folks today and she was absolutely terrified, thought she might faint! Honestly, they should be locked up for this. Definitely steer clear of ringing that number again, it might charge you a crazy 100 quid per minute.10 yearsJust received a ring from 01618504286 with one of those automated messages claiming to be from HM Revenue and Customs, saying I had some legal action about to happen against me. They told us to press 1, which my partner actually did, and then we got a guy with an Asian accent on the line. That’s when we twigged and ended the call straight away. It's crazy that this sort of thing is still going on. What if someone was really unwell and got freaked out by one of these scam calls? It's high time something was done to crack down on these dodgy calls.HM Revenue and Customs10 yearsJust got a call today from an automated message claiming to be HMRC, saying there was some legal action against us and to press one to speak to an officer. I did, and a guy answered with a noticeable foreign accent. He asked if I was Mrs ... (my partner’s name), but since we aren’t married I said no. He asked again, so I questioned who he was - his name sounded English but I can’t quite recall it. Wish I’d recorded it all. When I asked if he was really from HMRC, he paused before confirming. Then he asked for my name, which I refused to give and just hung up. Felt pretty unsettled afterwards, but it’s reassuring to see others mentioning the same scam.HMRC10 yearsToday, my niece got a call from this number saying there was a warrant for her arrest over some fraud charges. We instantly suspected it was a scam, and luckily we found this site, which helped settle her nerves. Such awful people out there. Really grateful for this site.10 yearsI’ve already had three calls from scammers this week alone, and honestly I’m getting sick of it. The frustrating thing is our number isn’t even public, it’s ex-directory and we never share it with anyone. So how on earth do these dodgy callers track it down? It’s so annoying. My advice would be to treat any unknown number like a scam, even if you think you recognise them, it’s best to double check.10 yearsWe got a call from 01618504286 the other day and it really worried my mum at first. She thought it was an automated call because it said something like "Press 1 for..." so luckily she just put the phone down. There was a really deep voice telling us that HM Taxes and Revenues were investigating us and saying we owed some big sum of money with a massive fine to pay. It's a shame these scammers don't try to find a proper job instead of causing stress for people!Press 1HMRC10 yearsThey left a voicemail claiming to be from HMR and said they're taking legal action, telling me to 'press 1'. I just ended the call rather than pressing anything. Pretty sure it's just a scam.HMR10 yearsThis number called me saying I'd be arrested in 30 minutes because I supposedly owe HM Revenue more than £1000. I got really stressed out and had a bit of a panic attack from the whole thing. I reported the number to the police, who told me there's no arrest warrant against me and that it’s just a scam trying to trick people into paying. Luckily, my kind next door neighbours helped me chill out as I was proper shaken up, thinking the police were on their way, even though I didn't owe a penny.HM Revenue10 yearsGot a call from a bloke claiming he was with HMRC, telling me I owed a huge amount in unpaid taxes. He said I needed to rush down to HMV and buy £1000 worth of iTunes vouchers or I’d be nabbed within half an hour. He sounded pretty serious and quite pushy. I didn’t fall for it though and haven’t done what he wanted. This call came through at 11:30 in the morning on 30/08/2016. Anyone know if there’s any way to block these scam calls for good?HM RevenueHMV10 yearsAt 12:28pm on 29th August 2016, this number buzzed me. Before I could even lift the phone properly, some recorded voice was already blaring about "we've been trying to reach you" and hinted at a case against me by HM something. They told me to press 1 right away to speak to the case "person." I pressed, but then the line just cut off. Later, I tried calling back, hoping to find out who it was, but it only went to voicemail. I get calls from 0161 numbers quite often, but I usually just ignore them.Submit Your Own Report (0161 850 4286)
