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.

7 yearsSome 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!HMRC8 yearsGot a call from this number, with someone claiming HM Customs are taking legal action against me. Didn’t even bother listening and just ended the call, pretty clear it’s a scam.HM Customs9 yearsGot 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.HMRC9 yearsToday at about 5:20pm, I got a ring from this number. Luckily, my call blocker picked it up and ended the call straight away. Honestly, call blockers and sites like this one are a lifesaver!9 yearsGot a call twice today with an automated lady saying HMRC’s about to sue me. She told me to press a button to hear some “help” they could offer. Ended both calls by hanging up straight away. Really happy I found this website to confirm it’s just a scam. Cheers!HMRC9 yearsGot a voicemail that was all mumbo jumbo about some lawsuit against me. Pretty sure it’s a scam, but honestly, it was so bad it was almost laughable. Still, I can see how it might scare folks.9 yearsGot a call just yesterday from someone claiming they could reduce what I pay for life insurance. Pretty sure they've moved on from hassling people about HMRC stuff.HMRC9 yearsSome bloke called himself James Parker but his accent was bloody obviously Asian. He rattled off a case number and some sort of arrest ID. I just told him I was hanging up and getting my accountant on the line. These scams need to be cracked down hard.James Parker9 yearsGot a call pretending to be from HMRC - total scam! Watch out, they try and catch you out.HMRC9 yearsGot a call from an 0300 number not long ago, and now this one rings with a recorded voice saying HMRC is taking legal action against me. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.HMRC9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC, but as soon as i told them they were scammers, they just hung up. I’m so tired of these annoying calls, really wish the phone companies would do something to stop them.HMRC9 yearsI picked up the phone and this automated voice started saying that HMRC were taking legal action against me, or whoever was on the line. Honestly, it seems quite risky since some people might actually fall for it and panic.HMRC9 yearsThey’ve called me twice today with the same message, really frustrating! I answer just in case it’s about a hospital appointment I’m expecting. This needs to be stopped for good. I often tell my elderly neighbours about these calls so they don’t fall for any scams.9 yearsHow come nobody’s trying to find out who’s behind this number and put a stop to it?9 yearsAbout 10 mins ago got a call from Burnley. Didn’t pick up, just hung up straight away.Burnley9 yearsI got a call from a woman claiming HMRC was suing me, but I just hung up straight away.HMRC9 yearsJust got a call during my lunch break with a recorded voice claiming HMRC was going to take legal action against me and asked me to press 1 to talk to an officer. Since I’ve already sorted my tax bill, it really threw me off for a moment! Thankfully, I thought twice and ended the call without pressing any buttons or talking to anyone. I’m on the TPS list too. Anyone know if there’s any follow-up happening on these calls?HMRCTPS9 yearsGot a call from this number, they claimed HMRC had taken legal action against me. Really stressed me out. I had to spend ages checking with HMRC just to find out it was all rubbish and a total waste of their time.HMRC9 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today with an automated message claiming HMRC is taking legal action against me - we just ignored it!HMRC9 yearsThis company needs to be dealt with urgently! Lots of folks are thinking it's HMRC calling, but these sorts of calls should be illegal. Something must be done about this scam.HRMC9 yearsReceived the exact same automated message as mentioned before, it’s mad how BT never seems to do anything to block these scams!!BT9 yearsToday, this number called my partner who’s 75, just like others have mentioned here. I decided to call back later on, but they just hung up on me. Definitely seems like a scam - HMRC wouldn’t act so unprofessionally.HMRC9 yearsGot a call about HMRC, but they cut off mid-message. It's a pity OFTEL doesn't look into these kinds of scams.HMRCOFCOM9 yearsThis number keeps ringing me up with some recorded message claiming HMRC is about to take me to court and to press 1 to speak with an agent. It’s clearly a scam, but I reckon some folks might get really scared by it. It’s awful that they manage to pull this off without any consequences.HMRC9 yearsSomeone rang my mum, who’s 84, pretending to be from HMRC and started threatening her with legal trouble. It’s just horrible what these nasty scammers do. Does anyone know how we can put a stop to these awful people?HMRC9 yearsHonestly, I think folks like this are just the worst.9 yearsMy mum, who’s quite old, got a ring from this number earlier. Like some folks have mentioned before, there was an automated message telling her it was from HMRC and to press a button to talk to someone about her case. We told her to just hang up, but honestly, these kinds of calls really stress her out.HMRC9 yearsGot a voicemail from a woman’s voice saying something about HMRC wanting to get hold of me due to a “legal case” or something like that. Didn’t mention any names or specifics. Totally a scam, no legit gov dept would ever use automated recordings like that. Wish they wouldnt target ppl who might actually get fooled by this nonsense.HMRC9 yearsAt about 10:15 in the morning, I got a call from 01618508634. I’m quite old and it really startled me initially, but I soon realised it was probably just a scam. Still, it can be really worrying for older folk like me.9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HMRC about some tax fraud investigation. They asked me to press 1 to talk to an advisor, but I didn’t press anything. This has got to be a scam, can’t they just block that number or something?HMRC9 yearsAt 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?HMRC9 yearsGot 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.9 yearsGot a call supposedly from HMRC about some lawsuit, but when I asked who was on the other end, they just hung up on me. Felt pretty dodgy if you ask me.HMRC9 yearsGot a message on my answerphone saying HMRC were taking me to court, lucky I wasn’t home to hear it, total scam if you ask me.HMRC9 yearsYesterday, a mate of mine who’s really ill got a call from these scammers pretending to be from HMRC. They were saying she’d be taken to court. It’s horrible especially since she’s terminally ill.HMRC9 yearsAbsolute 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. Does anyone know who we can notify to stop this? The authorities need to step in!9 yearsThis number has been calling me two days in a row now, leaving the exact same message each time. Seriously, when will these annoying people just quit already?9 yearsGot a call on this number earlier today. I told the police about it, and they told me if it happens again, just don’t talk to them.9 yearsThis number just rang my mum who’s quite old. It’s obvious they’re faking the number to seem legit. Like many have mentioned, there was a recorded message at the start saying it was from HMRC and to press a button to talk to your case officer. We told her to simply hang up, but these scammy calls really stress her out.HMRCMum9 yearsNearly got me there, but the timing seemed a bit off, so I just decided to ignore the call. Things seem to be getting worse recently since scammers are catching on that everyone's onto the old tricks now.9 yearsGot a call from this number earlier claiming HMRC's taking me to court, obviously a total scam so I just hung up. Funny enough, I got the same threatening call yesterday but it was from 0788193520.HMRC9 yearsIt’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!9 yearsanother one of those fake “hmrc lawsuit” calls again - it’s just a scam trying to scare people. honestly, why hasn’t the police done something about these crooks yet? it’s getting ridiculous!HMRC9 yearsI picked up and this recorded voice started saying I’m being sued or something. I pressed 1 and got a guy speaking English with a strong Indian accent, with loads of chat noise like a call centre behind him. Then he asked if I were Mrs xxx, which is actually my old name I haven’t used in years. I asked for their office phone twice but he just hung up on me. Totally a scam, watch out!9 yearsMy phone’s blocking app flagged 01618508634 as a scammer. Definitely wouldn’t pick up again.9 yearsGot a recorded call today, 22/1/18, claiming HMRC is suing me. Got a call from another number on 18/1/18 saying the same thing. Don’t answer or press any buttons - it’s a total scam. Make sure to report them to the ICO. The numbers are 01618507546 and 01618508634.HMRCICO9 yearsGot a call sayin mum had unpaid taxes and that there was already a warrant out for her arrest.9 yearsMy mum got a call from this number saying they were from HM REVENUE and threatening legal action. She's really upset by it all. She’s already on the TPS, so how is a scam from Manchester still able to do this?HM REVENUETPSManchester9 yearsGot a weird message saying HMRC's suing me and to press 1 for info. I pressed it, but the call just dropped. Now I've blocked loads of numbers starting with 0161 on my phone. Pretty sure it's one of those scams.HMRC9 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from HMRC and told me I was being taken to court. The caller had a strong Asian accent that was hard to make out and said his name was Mr James Parker.HMRCJames Parker9 yearsGot a recorded call from someone claiming to be HMRC, threatening legal action if I didn’t respond. The message said to press 1 to speak with my case officer.HMRC9 yearsThe caller claimed to be from HMRC and said legal steps were being taken against us. Our taxes are handled properly, so it can’t be true. This feels like a scam, probably meant to scare people. Could be really worrying for older folks, it’s got to be put to an end.HMRC9 yearsThis number called me again today with an automated message claiming to be from HMCS about court action against me. It really freaked me out the first time, so I just hung up straight away. People do this kind of thing for what reason?! It’s so annoying!HMCS9 yearsMy 91 year old mum just got a call from someone saying “hmrc legal action” - total scam with a recorded message. You’d think OFCOM could track down who’s behind this easily, but they never do. Feels like there’s something fishy going on behind the scenes.HMRCOfcom9 yearsThere was no info about the supposed person they were talking about, so it was obvious a scam. Normally, I hang up straight away, but I was out for a bit and my missus got annoyed with the dodgy caller.9 yearsGot a message from 01618508634 saying it was HMRC, but I ended the call early since HMRC doesn’t leave recorded messages. Felt like a scam straight away.HMRC9 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be HMRC with a recorded message, saying they were going to take legal steps to collect a debt. Definitely a scam!HMRC9 yearsGot a message today from 01618508634, sounded like it was from HMRC saying they were taking legal action. This came through after I had already blocked 01618507546 back on 19/1/18, which was sending the same kind of message. Pretty sure it’s a scam.HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (0161 850 8634)
