01618508634 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01618508634 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving automated calls impersonating HMRC and threatening legal action for alleged tax evasion or unpaid debts. Callers often use recorded female voices urging recipients to press a number to speak to a ‘case officer,’ followed by individuals with heavy South Asian accents. These calls target vulnerable groups, especially the elderly, causing distress and confusion. Genuine HMRC communications are never delivered via automated calls demanding immediate action. Many victims advise ignoring or hanging up and warn against engaging with the callers. Despite numerous reports, the scam continues unabated, raising calls for stronger intervention by phone providers and authorities to protect the public from these fraudulent, intimidating tactics.

Some bloke with an Indian accent rang me claiming he worked for HMRC and said I owed £3000 for dodgy taxes. When I said I couldn’t pay, he threatened to have me nabbed within a day. I just kept messing about with daft questions and gave him the runaround!

Got a call from 0161 850 8634, this recorded woman said HMRC was suing me. They must know HMRC always sends letters for stuff like this. Providers really need to block these calls, and police should look into it since they’re just trying to scam people out of money. It didn’t worry me, but I can imagine older folks getting really upset. The government and phone companies should do something to stop these annoying calls.

During my lunch break, I received a call that had a recorded message claiming to be from HMRC, stating their intention to take legal action against me. The message urged me to press 1 in order to connect with a case officer. This was somewhat alarming as I had recently paid my tax bill. However, I quickly realized that it would be wise to exercise caution and terminated the call without pressing any buttons or engaging with anyone. I'm already registered with the TPS. Is there anyone actively addressing these fraudulent calls?

I continuously receive calls from a specific number, with an automated message claiming that I am being sued by HMRC and urging me to press 1 to speak with someone.

At about 5.30pm, I picked up and got some robot voice first, then a bloke claiming to be from 'HMRC'. He was saying something about me or my husband owing them money. His English was so bad, barely made sense. I asked if it was a scam, cos obviously it was, but he insisted it wasn’t. It’s annoying but kinda frightening as well. Seriously, who are these scammers?

Got a call from 'imrc' claiming they're suing me. Honestly, not sure what the fuss is about. Tried ringing them back (not something I'd advise) and ended up speaking to someone with a South Asian accent who just cut off the call when I asked some questions. Feels like a total scam to me, but I can't figure out who really gains from it.

Absolute scam going on here, these nasty scammers ringing up older folks pretending to be from the tax office. They claim you owe money and threaten court action, which is just awful. My mum's 84 and she was so frightened she barely wanted to touch her food and was scared to even pick up the phone. This kind of behaviour is really wrong.

It’s always the same spiel on the voicemail, pretty annoying when I’m up stairs and the phone’s way down below. I suppose they earn a little something from the phone company for every ring. Wouldn’t it be better to let the message run for ages? That way they wouldn’t be able to keep using that line for a bit!
