6 yearsHad a call from some bloke called Adam Higgins Fromm Iff research, said he was ringing for magenta homes. When I told him I wouldn't give out any details on the phone cos could be anyone, he tried to convince me he was legit. Then he told me to ring magenta myself to check, said he'd call back later. Nah, doesn’t sound proper to me, pretty sure it’s not from the real company.Adam HigginsIFF ResearchMagenta HomesMagenta7 yearsSomebody rang me pretending to be from the HMRC’s criminal investigation team, said I had half an hour to pay up or they’d have the police round to arrest me. Total scam alert!HMRC7 yearsI received a call purporting to be from HMRC, which was rather amusing as I was in the midst of dealing with them myself. I asked to grab his number so I could ring him back at a more suitable moment, and he mentioned that he was rather elusive, claiming he often didn't have his voicemail switched on! Quite the peculiar exchange, I must say!HMRC7 yearsI got a call from this number 02080495776 from a woman named Anna. She claimed to be from some education department, talking about staffing problems and their impact on businesses. Didn’t really make sense to me, so I just ended the call.Anna7 yearsGot a call with nothing said on the other end. Bit annoying since it disturbed my sleep!7 yearsThe line went silent right after I picked up.7 yearsGot a call from a young sounding woman claiming to be from some government office, asking for the business owner. I told her to never ring me again.7 yearsThey introduced themselves as representatives of the education department, but honestly, it felt more like a recruitment firm to me.7 yearsThere was nothing dodgy about this call, they didn’t ask for any private info or anything sketchy. It was just a survey about work and some of the problems people have with their jobs. Took a fair while but apart from that, everything felt quite genuine.7 yearsThis number is a complete scam, so don't share any of your info with them!7 yearsGot a call on my mobile from 020 8049 5776. I picked up, said hello, and then the call just dropped. After seeing what others are saying, I've blocked the number now.7 yearsJust like others have mentioned, this number kept calling and when I finally picked up, it simply cut off! It's becoming quite the nuisance!7 yearsHad a call from a market research company working on behalf of HMRC. It seemed completely legit, and our financial director answered their questions. They only asked for stuff that wouldn’t be risky or handy for any crooks, so I felt pretty confident about it.HMRC7 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were doing a government survey, but the moment I asked a bit more they just hung up. Then they called back again shortly after. Didn’t seem legit at all.7 yearsI got a call from someone who claimed to be from IFF Research, saying they were collecting info for CITB. The person I spoke to was called Victoria Drake. She suggested I reach out to WHO CALLED ME to verify if they’re legit. I’ve looked up IFF and even rang them, and yep, the company does exist - they do market research, not sales. I’m on the TPS register, but apparently, they’re allowed to contact me because it’s for official government-related data or something like that. At least that’s what they told me.IFF ResearchCITBVictoria DrakeWHO CALLED MEIFFTPS7 yearsGot a call from a woman asking about some training courses. When I started asking for more details, she just ended the call on me. Quite suspicious!7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from a research firm working with HMRC about some EU quotas.

Bit strange, if you ask me. Number was 02080495776.HMRCEU7 yearsGot a call from a woman who sounded Asian, I think? She was asking loads of questions about some sort of training course. Bit random, not sure what it was all about.7 yearsGot a call again from someone who said his name was Steve McNamie, or something like that, and said he was from HMRC.

He wanted to talk to me specifically, but when I said I wasn’t around, he just ended the call straight away.7 yearsGot a call about getting ready for importing and exporting goods post-Brexit from the EU. They gave me a number from HMRC, but honestly, they need to be more careful about who they ring up - I'm just a sole trader handling my own tax stuff. Felt like such a pointless call. I'm just sitting here waiting for those clowns at Westminster to actually sort Brexit properly so we can all stop faffing about and make real plans!EUHMRCWestminster7 yearsI've had a few calls over the past few days where they just hung up if I didn’t pick up quickly, usually before the third ring.

Quite curious!HMRCEU7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from HMRC. They wanted to know if I was involved in importing or exporting things.
