Phone number ☎️ 01618506788 👆 is reported as a persistent scam targeting individuals, including the elderly, with recorded messages falsely claiming to be from HMRC and threatening legal action or arrest unless immediate payment is made. Callers use high-pressure tactics, abusive language, and insist recipients press a number to speak to a "case officer," which is indicative of fraud. Numerous reports confirm these calls are illegitimate and exploit fear to coerce payments. HMRC or other genuine government agencies do not use such methods. Recipients are advised to ignore, block the number, and warn vulnerable contacts, especially older relatives, to protect against distress and potential financial loss. Contacting or engaging with the callers is strongly discouraged.

8 yearsTotally feels like a con to me!8 yearsI got a voicemail from someone claiming to be from HM Revenue & Customs, saying I was facing legal action and telling me to press 2 to speak to my "case officer". It was clearly a scam, I recorded it just in case. Totally dodgy and not at all believable. Best to just ignore and hang up.HMRC8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from HMRC, telling me the cops would be at my door in half an hour unless I paid £1900 right away. When I asked some questions, the person got really rude and shouted. Total scam, don’t fall for it!HMRC8 yearsGot a voicemail from someone claiming to be HMRC, saying I’m facing legal action and to "Press 1 to speak to your case officer." Nope, didn’t fall for it and just ended the call. Feels like a total scam to me!HMRC8 yearsGot a call from this number today, and some recorded voice was threatening me with a lawsuit. I pretty much hung up straight away because it sounded dodgy. Later, I looked up the number online and found this site, so yeah, without a shadow of a doubt, it’s a scam.8 yearsJust got a call like this one about 10 minutes ago - it’s the third time they’ve rung me now. These scammers are really trying to frighten folks with talk of court cases, which could easily trick those who aren’t careful. Anon - Scotland.Scotland8 yearsThis morning at 10:10am on 3/9/2018, I received a call from this number. They claimed HMRC were taking legal action against us and told me to press 1 to get through.HMRC8 yearsThis is definitely a rip-off. No official government department would ever reach out like this.8 yearsJust got a call from this number to my 90 year old mum, telling her she’s got some lawsuit against her or something. It’s really awful how they target older people like that. Definitely a scam trying to frighten them into paying up. Make sure you let any older family members know about this!8 yearsthis number calls me like 3 times every single week, honestly, is there no way to stop it?8 yearsJust got a phone call and it’s an obvious scam. There’s no way HMRC would ring you up with an automated message threatening legal action and telling you to press one to talk to the ‘case officer’. The people behind this are proper daft if they reckon they can pull that off. If they ring back, I’m going to answer and give them a piece of my mind.HMRC8 yearsTotal scam! They actually tried to threaten me with a lawsuit. Then they said if I press 1, it’ll connect me to the police. Just don’t bother, block these numbers straight away!8 yearsThis scammer rang up my elderly folks, said they’d got a big debt to clear right away or bailiffs would come and take all their stuff, plus they’d end up in jail. Proper scared them stiff. It’s awful, these kinds of calls could seriously mess with someone’s health. Total low-life move.Proper8 yearsGot the exact same automated message a moment ago.8 yearsGot a couple of calls from this number claiming to be from HMRC. They even left a voice message, so I tried calling back but they just ended the call straight away. Bit fishy if you ask me.HMRC8 yearsThis has to be a scam, for sure. The IRS would never get in touch over the phone like that.IRS8 yearsI got a call off someone insisting I pay up money they claim I owe.8 yearsHad the exact same thing happen to me about 5 hours back. Got another ring just now from 0161 850 4034. Seems like this second number’s been buzzing around more, while the one ending in 6788 appears to be brand new with reports only popping up today.8 yearsI've been getting calls from this number leaving voicemails saying they're from HMRC and threatening legal action against me. They keep telling me to press 1 to speak to the person in charge of my case. Didn't pick up of course, but watch out, it's definitely a scam.HMRC8 yearsJust got a call earlier today from someone claiming to be from HMRC saying they were after me. I tried ringing back, but after a long wait, I got an answerphone with a bloke sounding American who said he couldn’t take the call right now but to leave my name and details and he’d get back to me. Didn’t come across as genuine at all. I was sure it was a scam since hardly anyone has my number, and you'd think they’d at least start with knowing your name in their scam.HMRC8 yearsSome bloke rang me up threatening to take legal action against my business. When I dialled back, this Indian guy picked up and started going on about getting me arrested if I didn’t play along. Told him to bugger off, and next thing he’s saying he’s gonna come round and find me. I couldn’t stop laughing as he got more and more pissed off. Honestly, don’t give these muppets any details about yourself.8 yearsGot a call early on Saturday morning, about 10:10 on the 1st of September 2018. The message was prerecorded and I couldn’t quite catch everything, but it sounded like it came from some legal or debt company. They said something like "We’re going to take legal action against you" and told me to press 1. I just hung up straight away. Seems like it might be a scam, so watch out and be cautious!8 yearsGot a automated voice saying they were from the tax office and apparently they’d tried to reach me before, now threatening legal action. They never said who it was aimed at. I cut the message off early, it sounded dodgy, so I just blocked the number. Definitely felt like a scam.Submit Your Own Report (0161 850 6788)
