01618509216 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01618509216 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving automated and direct calls falsely claiming to be from HMRC, threatening legal action, arrests, or court appearances due to alleged unpaid taxes. Callers often demand payment via unconventional methods, such as iTunes cards, and may attempt to extract personal information like National Insurance numbers. These calls typically occur at unusual times and use number spoofing to mimic official HMRC contacts. Genuine HMRC communications are always via official letters, never automated calls demanding immediate payment or pressuring recipients to engage. Recipients are strongly advised not to provide any information, not to press any buttons, and to report such incidents to the authorities. The scam is particularly distressing to older or vulnerable individuals and considered a serious fraud risk.

I received a rather alarming call claiming to be from HMRC, warning me about impending court action. They mentioned that I couldn't settle the fine online and hinted that the police were on their way. Oddly enough, they suggested using iTunes gift cards for payment. I found that rather suspicious and hung up. After that, I got three more calls, and one even came from the legit HMRC number, 03002003310. I suspect they have the capability to mask their actual caller ID.

These lot phoned my mum saying they were from HMRC and that she needed to pay up some owed cash. It really freaked her out, poor thing. She even ended up telling them her National Insurance number! I’m really unsure about what steps she should take now.

Got a call from someone claiming to be HMRC threatening me with court if I didn’t pay a fine. They said I couldn’t pay online like usual and had to use iTunes gift cards, saying the police were on their way and all that. I just hung up. Then I kept getting calls after that, one was even from a number that looked like the real HMRC one, 03002003310. Seems like they’re able to fake their caller ID or something.

So I got a call where they claimed to be from HMRC, saying there was some kind of case against me. I’ve heard about these scams before, so I just hung up instead of pressing 1 to talk to them. I’m in the older age group and it really frustrates me that these calls never seem to stop! Didn’t BT have that 1572 scheme or something? What happened to that?

These lot phoned up my elderly aunt, claiming she owes money and threatening to send her to jail if she doesn’t pay up. It’s really scary stuff. I just hope they end up behind bars instead.

Received a dodgy call from some automated system claiming that HMRC is suing me and that I should get in touch with my case officer. This is clearly not how HMRC operates! Given that I haven't done anything wrong and my finances are in a bit of a pickle, it’s clearly a scam. It did send a shiver down my spine at first, I must admit.

Got a voicemail saying there’s some case against me and to hit 1 to talk with their solicitor. Lucky I wasn’t home at the time!

Terrible scam call! Never ever hit 1 when you get a call like that. If it was actually HMRC trying to reach you, they’d send a letter, not ring you on a Saturday evening using some dodgy robot voice!

Ugh, not this again! I’m so over getting these calls. Just a heads up, there isn’t any money you’re going to get back, and definitely don’t believe it when they say it’s HMRC trying to take you to court!

I got a recorded message claiming it was HMRC saying we'd got a warrant out and that they'd been trying to reach us. It told me to press 1 to talk to someone about it. My partner quickly said it was a scam since they would’ve sent a letter if it was real. If I was by myself, I’d have been really worried.

I got a robocall saying HMRC was suing me. Then a person came on the line and I told them I wasn’t fooled since I’d just got a tax refund from HMRC. They hung up straight away.

I got a call similar to what’s mentioned here today and just ended the call straight away. I’ve reached out to HMRC to see what action they’re taking about these scams.

Got a voicemail claiming it was from Her Majesty's Inland Revenue saying they are taking legal action over some unpaid taxes. Quite worrying!

watch out for phone calls coming from this number, its linked to a scam pretending to be from hmrc about a refund or unpaid tax. if you get a ring from this number, just block it and dont pick up. if you do answer, dont share any details, better just end the call quickly. hmrc never calls to talk about refunds. if you do owe anything to hmrc, they send multiple letters, not calls. be careful!

This morning, my mum got a call claiming she owed tax and that she was being taken to court over it. She's in her seventies, so it really stressed her out. She normally just ignores scam calls and ends them quickly, but this one seemed more real to her. Thankfully, she ended the call as soon as they told her to press 1.

Just like others, I got the call and ended it straight away, then blocked the number. Still, I worry about older folks like my mum or anyone who might be more trusting getting these calls. It’s really worrying. p###### ??????

Like what others have said, I got a call from HMRC but it was one of those automated voices saying I was about to be taken to court and to hit 1. Just ended the call straight away.

Got a call from this number earlier today, they put me through to a woman. When I didn’t take the bait, she started swearing at me in the rudest way imaginable. Honestly mad how nasty she got - wouldn’t be surprised if an elderly person was really upset by that sort of behaviour!!

Answered this number and got a recorded message saying the tax office was taking legal action against me and to press 1 to talk about it. Hung up straight away - could really scare someone older!

I’ve just received a notification that HMRC is suing me! Every time I try to get through to someone, they ask, “How may I assist you?” Excuse me, but you’re the one who called me! Then they just cut the line. This isn’t right, and it definitely isn’t English!
