Phone number ☎️ 02032877659 👆 is reported as a persistent HMRC-related scam number used to intimidate recipients with threats of tax evasion or legal action. Callers often employ aggressive or automated voices, sometimes with foreign accents, and fail to verify personal details accurately. They pressure individuals to call back on supplied numbers, which are linked to fraudulent schemes aiming to extract money or sensitive information. Many users caution against returning calls or sharing data, highlighting distress caused especially to vulnerable or elderly people. The calls are fake, with HMRC officially stating they do not cold call about tax debts. Blocking the number and reporting incidents to official channels is advised to avoid falling victim to these scams.

Got a garbled message from someone claiming to be HMRC, saying I'm under investigation for tax evasion. They couldn’t give me any of my info and it was pretty obvious it was a scam.

This number rang me up twice, i picked up on the second time and the bloke was really pushy, saying i owed loads to HMRC and police were on their way. I told him i’d just put the kettle on and have some jammy dodgers ready for them and he just hung up. Maybe he was more interested in the biscuits than the money!

Got a call from “Skylark” - sounded like one of those automated things but then a real person answered! When I asked how they got my info, they kinda mumbled their way through it. Then I asked them to say my full name, but they only gave me a first name and it was wrong. I was quite surprised! I told them to remove my number from their list and warned that if they rang me again, I'd report them for harassment to the police. You could tell he didn’t take it well!

I received a message that didn’t specify if it was addressed to Mr or Mrs, which struck me as odd. They made some vague accusations about us being involved in tax evasion, but honestly, we have no idea what they're on about. Then, the next message claimed we were being taken to court over this supposed tax matter. It all sounds rather dodgy to me; I really hope it's just some sort of scam.

The American accent kinda gives it away straight away. I’m self-employed so maybe it was legit, but HMRC always sends letters first, so it’s obviously a dodgy scam. Why don’t the phone firms just block these scammers after the very first complaint??

It must be utterly terrifying for some individuals, particularly the vulnerable and older generation. It gave me quite a jolt, and I'm well aware of these despicable scam phone calls! I swiftly snatched the phone away from my little one who has a penchant for picking up calls. I only answered because it was from an 020 3... number. On the other end was this automated voice, very British, authoritative and quite menacing, declaring something along the lines of, ‘You have been detected for tax evasion and need to ring this number immediately, do not procrastinate’. I really appreciate this website; it was the first place I turned to for information. Absolute rotters!

I missed a call on my landline and found a voicemail waiting that claimed to be from HMRC's tax office, urging me to return the call to resolve an issue with unpaid income tax. Intrigued, I dialled the number using my mobile. A rather forceful woman came on the line, requesting my personal information almost immediately. To my shock, she alleged that I owed a staggering £1950 in back tax! What’s more, she insisted I head over to Sainsbury's to purchase a voucher to settle this supposed debt. When I expressed my disbelief and sought a written confirmation via letter or email, she rudely informed me that they had already dispatched a letter - which I had never received. The conversation took a sinister turn as she threatened that if I didn’t comply, the police would be alerted and I could face arrest! After a lengthy empty spiel about legal implications, she abruptly hung up when I refused to play along. It felt all very questionable!

Got a voicemail from 020 3287 7659, sounded like a middle eastern or indian accent, real rude too, claiming to be from HMRC.

Got a call at 8 in the morning - a recorded dude's voice, bit of a North American twang, claimed to be from HMRC and said there's a complaint against me, threatening court action unless I or my lawyer ring them back quick on 020 3287 7659. We all know HMRC doesn't handle things like that. 100% a scam. Tried to look up the number but it’s a mystery. It’s crazy how many sneaky calls there are these days.

They told me to ring back on 0203 287 7659, saying they were from "Her Majesty’s (couldn't catch the rest)" and that either me or my solicitor needed to get back to them straight away. Totally sounds like a scam to me, especially since the actual call came from a different number, 01677 716251, which shows as “not recognised” if you try to ring it back. Might just call them for a laugh! Honestly, who’s ever heard of HMRC ringing before 9 in the morning?

The 'action fraud' number is 0300 1232040, but honestly it’s a bit pointless - all they do is send you to their website. Then the website just links you to some HMRC info page. Seems like they couldn’t care less. The police won’t do anything unless you’ve actually lost money. I’d recommend calling 999 and reporting it as an attempted fraud (try to get an incident reference) because then they’re forced to log it and it counts towards their crime stats. That’s the only way you’ll get them to take this kind of scam seriously.

A person with a dodgy English accent called saying I owe HMRC tax money and that I’m being taken to court. Sounds fake to me since my accountant just sorted my tax return and I’ve got no outstanding payments. They gave me a number to ring back, but I didn’t bother noting it down.
