6 yearsJust got a call from 01619594855, looks like their latest number. Picked up for a sec, then dropped the call straight away when they said it was from HMRC.HMRC7 yearsNo idea really.8 years01618505599 kept ringing me with some fake recorded claim about HM Revenue. Utter nonsense but could really scare older folks or anyone who's vulnerable. These scammers deserve to be locked up. Happened on Friday, 3rd August.HM Revenue8 yearsGot a voicemail on my ansafone, but all I heard was the last bit saying press 1 to talk to a cop or somemone in the police. Seriously!?8 yearsReceived a call from this number, and to be honest, it gave off a bit of a dodgy vibe, so I’ve noted it down.8 yearsI received a phone call this evening from a chap whose accent I couldn't quite place. I requested to speak to someone else who might be easier to understand, but it became apparent that this was all a bit dodgy! Definitely felt like a scam to me!8 yearsThey just rang me at work, totally a scam. Best thing to do is ignore and block the number straight away.8 yearsJust got one of them calls claiming to be from HMRC, well more like an answerphone message actually. They do give a number that looks legit, so it makes you wonder why the police or whoever don’t track it down and sort it out. Guess it’s just not a priority for them, sadly.HMRC8 yearsgot two calls today from someone pretending to be HMRC, total scam!HMRC8 yearsI received a call from this number regarding some legal action from HRMC. When I declined to share my name, the caller rudely told me to shove off!HRMC8 yearsI just got the same call. They said they were from HMRC and threatened legal action unless I pressed 1 to talk to someone. My answerphone picked it up instead. I’ve blocked the number and reported it to www.actionfraud.police.uk.HMRC8 yearsJust like loads of others have said, they said they were from HMRC and said they’re taking legal action against me. Got called twice within a couple of hours.HMRC8 yearsGot two calls like this today, both with the same message. First one showed a Bermudan number, second was from Manchester.BermudaManchester8 yearsI received a rather dubious call from this number, where an automated voice claimed to represent HMRC and mentioned something about launching a case against me. After that, a chap with a rather strong accent came on the line and requested my name. Naturally, I was hesitant to divulge any personal details, as they had rung me, and surely they ought to have that information at hand. When he insisted on knowing my name, I requested some form of verification to confirm he was genuinely from HMRC. Suddenly, the line went silent, and I was left hanging. It's clear to me that this is a scam attempt, and I will be making a report about it.HMRC8 yearsReceived a call on the 6th of December, 2018, claiming that HMRC was putting together a case against me. Is there any way to track down the individual or the business responsible for this? It's utterly disgraceful!HMRC8 yearsarseholes8 yearsGot the call a moment ago. Let it go to voicemail. Blocked the number straight away and also reported it through www.actionfraud.police.uk.Action Fraud8 yearsPlease put an end to this absolutely vile scam!8 yearsA woman claimed to be from HM Revenue and Customs, asserting that the agency is initiating legal proceedings against us.HM Revenue and Customs8 yearsMy grandma got a call from this number saying HMRC was taking legal action against her. Thankfully, she hung up straight away and rang me crying. I told her it was a total scam. I really wish I could tell these idiots off properly (and maybe even throw a punch). It’s so cruel to mess with people like that, especially older folks who are easy targets.HMRC8 yearsSomeone pretending to be police said they were from HMRC and told my vulnerable sister in law she had to pay money from 1982 or they'd take her to court. They kept ringing her non stop, scaring her so much she had a panic attack in the supermarket. By the time I got the call the calls stopped since someone blocked her number, but when I tried to report it to the Met police on 101, I couldn’t get through and was left waiting for like 30 minutes. She was absolutely terrified they’d be outside her flat waiting for her cos they had her address.HMRCMet8 years01618505599 Just got that HMRC threat call. Tried ringing back but it went straight to voicemail. Anyone got tips on how to totally freak these scammers out? Also, has anyone had any real dealings with HMRC recently? Wonderin if they’re using actual HMRC info for their scams?HMRC8 yearsI already told on this number before but now Ive got the exact same message from another one, 01263887745. They really dont quit. Dont bother responding to these scammers.8 yearsMy 86 year old dad got a call from someone claiming to be HMRC, saying he was being sued and to press 1 to speak to a case officer. Told him to just ignore it and not pick up if they call again. The number they used was 0161 850 5599. Older folks really shouldn’t have to deal with this kind of stress.HMRC8 yearsYesterday my elderly dad got a call from this number claiming to be HMRC and threatening him. It really shook him up. These scams are just terrible. The message was an automated one left on his voicemail and he kept listening to it over and over until I finally erased it.HMRC8 yearsThey've been ringing me nonstop for the past three days, claiming to be from HMRC. I tried calling back once from my phone but just ended up with an automated voice. Definitely a scam, as HMRC wouldn’t handle things like this.HMRC8 yearsEvery single one of these calls comes through at all hours. Why hasn’t anything been done when they clearly have the number?8 yearsFor the past three days I’ve had calls every day from someone claiming to be HMRC. I tried calling back once from my mobile but all I got was an automated message. Definitely a scam - HMRC wouldn’t contact you like that.HMRC8 yearsThis was definitely an HMRC scam. I’ve already reported it to [email protected] so just a heads up to everyone else.HMRC8 yearsClearly a scam, pretending to be HMRC. Who’s doing this? Ruining a quiet Saturday afternoon! It’s just sad, really.HMRC8 yearsThey keep calling at all hours of the day. Why hasn’t anything been done? They already have the number.8 yearsGot two calls from someone claiming to be HMRC in the past 20 minutes. Don’t pick up or respond, just end the call. It’s definitely a scam. Contact your phone company to block these numbers.HMRC8 yearsGot a recorded call claiming to be from HMRC saying there’s a legal action against me and to press 1 to sort it out. I just hung up. Anyone know the best way to block and report these annoying calls?HM Revenue and Customs8 yearsReceived a call saying there's a court case against us, but when someone rang them back, no reply. Seems like a scam, keeps calling three times every time. Probably just trying to scare you into paying something.8 yearsGot a robocall about some HMRC issue and told to press 1 to talk to a 'case worker'. Totally dodgy, not real at all. Just ended the call straight away.HMRC8 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be HMRC, claiming there's legal action against me and to press 1 to talk to the case officer. Don’t fall for it and definitely don’t press anything. It's a massive scam, stay clear!HMRC8 yearsGot a robo call claiming to be from HMRC saying they’re taking me to court.HMRC8 yearsJust like others have said, these lot keep ringing nonstop. They even tried to scare me by saying I'd get arrested. Thing is, I'm a disabled pensioner and thankfully had the presence of mind to just hang up and tell them exactly what I think. I wonder how many more folks have been bullied into paying them.8 yearsGot a recorded call saying it was from HMRC, saying I was under some kind of investigation and to 'press 1' to talk to my case worker. I just blocked the number and reported it to Action Fraud. I reckon everyone else should do that too.HMRCAction Fraud8 yearsWhat a bunch of muppets. Got an automated message claiming HMRC have been trying to reach me (total rubbish), saying there’s a lawsuit going on. As if I’m daft enough to believe that! It’s proper awful thinking about how some vulnerable folks might actually get tricked by this!HMRC8 yearsHow come we’re still letting scammers ring up vulnerable folks? The phone companies and police should really get cracking on this, they’ve got the info on who’s behind the calls after all.8 yearsGot a call saying I had an arrest warrant because of unpaid tax or something. Something didn’t feel right but still kinda worried when someone tells you there’s legal trouble even though you’re not guilty of anything.8 yearsReceived a voicemail claiming it was from the tax office regarding a lawsuit, urging me to press 1. I didn't respond and promptly deleted the message. Clearly a scam!8 yearsTerrible attempt at an HMRC court scam call. They barely made any sense and spoke so quietly I could hardly hear a thing. No idea why they even bother with this rubbish :)HMRCEarth8 yearsI live in Devon and keep gettin' those recorded messages from HMRC or whatever. Loads of annoying scam calls on my home phone.

Total scam!HMRC8 yearsGot a call from this number claiming I owed the tax office and that there was a warrant out for me, but I could fix it all immediately on the phone.

I actually rang the fraud hotline and handed over their number, 01618505599, so they could check it out.HMRC8 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, they left a voicemail claiming HMRC is taking legal action against me. Proper nasty scam, watch out!HMRC8 yearsSame here, got a call about some court case against me, sounded like a total scam.

Luckily I hung up, but they called back today sayin I talked to one of their mates yesterday. Told em to buzz off cos I know now it’s a total scam.8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC about some lawsuit. Just to be safe, I reported the number and signed up with the telephone preference service to stop unwanted calls on my phone and landline. It's free and might do the trick.HMRCTelephone Preference Service8 yearsHonestly, this kind of thing must be really scary for older folks, had me on edge a bit too. I guess I’m just way too trusting! These scammers should seriously be locked up!8 yearsJust got a call from 01618505599, they wanted my name so I told them it’s a bloody scam same as theirs.

She just replied “oh, what would they say then?” lol. These scammers really should feel embarrassed.HMRCUK8 yearsGot a couple of voicemails on my answerphone from someone claiming HMRC are suing me, saying press 1. Rang 1471 to check.

Honestly, how daft are these dodgy scammers? If anyone falls for that, I reckon they probably aren’t bright enough to make money worthy of paying tax on. Honestly, I hope these absolute muppets come down with something nasty and awful, then suffer through it themselves.
