Phone number ☎️ 01618509442 👆 is reported as a persistent scam where callers impersonate HMRC, claiming there is a lawsuit or tax investigation against you and urge you to press 1 to speak to a "case officer." The calls often use automated recorded messages and occasionally involve noisy background to confuse victims. Many have noted that calling back results in silence or disconnection. The scammers try to extract personal info like date of birth or national insurance numbers.

The nuisance particularly targets vulnerable people, including elderly, causing distress. Authorities are urged to investigate and shut down these fraudulent operations to protect the public.

9 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were HMRC, but it was definitely a scam. They told me to press 1, which is a big red flag. Don’t hang up right away; instead, block the number straight away. HMRC never phones like that!HMRC9 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from HMRC - total scam! They were threatening me with a lawsuit if I didn’t pay up. Definitely a dodgy call, so watch out everyone!9 yearsI received a rather alarming call from this number, claiming that I was under investigation for my taxes. When I attempted to return the call, nobody picked up. It’s clearly a scam that ought to be put to a stop and the individuals behind it brought to justice.9 yearsToday I got a call from this same number saying HMRC were taking legal action against me and to press 1 to speak to my case officer. I pressed it and got connected to a guy who didn’t seem to know who I was, plus there was loads of background noise so chatting was impossible before he just hung up! Anytime I try calling back this number, it’s always busy. How do they keep pestering people with this kind of message? Isn’t there some way to trace or block them? It’s such a clear scam but what exactly are they after?HMRC9 yearsBeware, this number is a total scam pretending to be HMRC!HMRC9 yearsSo, this week my grandma got a call from someone saying she was involved in some legal case. They wanted all her details, like her birthday and even her NI number. When they asked for the NI, my gran just replied, “You’ll have to send me a letter for that,” and then she ended the call. It’s pretty obvious they’re just trying to scam people out of money. Never hand over your personal info like that, if they’re legit they’ll already have it. Same deal with banks ringing about new cards, don’t trust those calls either.9 yearsGot a voicemail from them threatening legal action and said to press 1 to talk to a case worker. Just like all the others, it was a pre-recorded message.9 yearsHad a voicemail from some recorded message about HMRC suing me and to press 1 to talk to some bloke about my case. Wish I was home to pick up and give that “case officer” a piece of my mind. If you actually owed HMRC anything, they definitely wouldn’t be ringing you with some robo call like that.HMRC9 yearsHonestly, stuff like this needs to be cracked down on. I've never seen a scam worse than this one.9 yearsGot a recorded message on my voicemail, said it was from HMRC - looks like others have had the same. In just one day, I got two calls: one from this number and another from 0161 850 8662. The second call even showed an international flag on my answerphone. These scammers really need to be stopped immediately!HMRC9 yearsGot a message recorded, said HMRC are starting a lawsuit. Totally a scam. HMRC wouldn’t ever call or email like that. I just hung up, but kinda curious what would’ve happened if I’d pressed 1 to chat with my “case officer”?HMRC9 yearsIt's pretty clear that these calls are just scams. You can easily find the billing addresses linked to these numbers, so why isn't anyone shutting them down or taking legal action against the scammers? People who are vulnerable deserve to be safe from these dodgy characters.9 yearsOn 27/01/2018, I got a recorded call saying it was from HMRC. This number really needs a proper look into - it’s very worrying, especially for older folks.HMRC9 yearsGot a robo call claiming it was HMRC, saying I had a legal case against me and to press 1 to talk to some officer. Just ended the call straight away.HMRC9 yearsGot multiple calls from a Manchester number recently. It was a recorded message saying it was HMRC and that I had a court case, telling me to press 1 to talk to someone. Totally a scam, don’t fall for it. I’ve informed the police about it, and also contacted the phone company, AQL, to let them know their customer is running a fraud and asked them to stop providing services to them.ManchesterHMRCAQL9 yearsI ignored the call, then got a voicemail saying something about HMRC taking legal action and to press 1 to find out more. Total scam, no doubt. They rang me the day before with the same message but from a different number - 01618508662 if anyone's curious.HMRC9 yearsGot a call from this robotic voice saying it was HMRC, then it tried to connect me to some Case Worker!HMRC9 yearsJust got another call from someone claiming to be from BT, though my sister already got a call like that today. It’s so frustrating with all these scammers trying their luck on vulnerable folks. We’re pensioners and might be old but we’re not easy to fool! Tried to call HMRC but they’re tied up right now.BTHMRC9 yearsGot a call today that started right in the middle of a sentence, something like “lawsuit against you, press 1 to talk to a police officer”. Funny thing is, I had almost the exact same call but from a different number yesterday - 0161 850 8662. Definitely a dodgy scam to trick people. It’s beyond me why they don’t just find proper work rather than trying to rip off others. Steer well clear of these lot!9 yearsI got a robo call claiming the Inland Revenue was suing me, with a message telling me to press 1 to talk to their case officer. I just ignored it and didn’t press anything.Inland Revenue9 yearsGot a call earlier where an automated voice told me I was being sued and to press 1 to talk to a rep. I just hung up straight away. Honestly, it was pretty creepy!9 yearsReceived a couple of dodgy calls from someone claiming to be from the HMRC, stating there was a lawsuit filed against my name. I tried ringing them back, but when I did, it was just silence on the other end. Is this likely a scam? Should I be worried now that I’ve called them back?HMRC9 yearsGot a robo call saying some company (couldn’t catch the name) is suing me, and if I press one I’d talk to a case officer. Obviously, I just hung up without saying a word.9 yearsYet another dodgy call! They pretended to be from HMRC, claiming I owed £998.88 in unpaid taxes and that I was facing legal action. When I suggested they take me to court to sort it all out, they just hung up! Very suspicious, to say the least.HMRC9 yearsClaimed to be from HMRC, yet it felt rather dubious. Genuine representatives typically reach out in writing and wouldn’t fail to verify the identity of the person they’re speaking to. Definitely raises red flags about the legitimacy of the call!HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (0161 850 9442)
