5 yearsI got a call from a Virgin Media number.Virgin Media7 yearsThis number keeps ringing me, claiming to be from HMRC. Don't bother returning the call, it'll probably cost you loads!HMRC8 yearsBeen reading the paper and saw a warning about a scam going round in the M.E.N. Just thought I’d share so folks keep their eyes open.Manchester Evening News8 yearsThis was obviously a scam pretending to be HMRC. I saw it mentioned in an email from Which? so if you check out their website and search for "HMRC scam" you'll spot it too.HMRCHMRC Scam8 yearsI found this number listed on the Which? site, so I’m pretty sure it’s a scam.8 yearsI got a message claiming to be from HMRC, but it's definitely a scam. What really gets me is that BT is allowing these scammers to use this number. Why don't they just shut it down?HMRCBT8 yearsScam alert - I went ahead and blocked the number right away.8 yearsI saw this number calling me but I didn’t pick up.8 yearsHad the same ring from a dodgy number - lucky I’m careful with stuff like this! Did a bit of digging and came across a piece that said HMRC knows about these scams, usually aimed at older or vulnerable folks. Apparently, they often get random calls claiming HMRC is looking into them. The advice is if you can't confirm who’s calling, it’s best not to engage. Real HMRC calls about tax usually mention your taxpayer reference number, and sometimes they even use automatic messages. So I just went ahead and blocked the number.HMRC8 yearsGot a call like this today as well, luckily I’m retired now so I ain’t got to worry about paying tax or anything, so these calls don’t scare me. Shame really, cause I’m sure loads of other folks get really anxious from hearing this and it should be put to an end.8 yearsLast week my dad got a call from these people. I tried calling back on my phone but kept my number hidden. A bloke with an accent I couldn’t place picked up. When I asked what was going on, he just hung up on me. Then my sister got one just today, and it was the same thing - same kind of accent and everything. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.8 yearsGot a call about an arrest warrant from HMRC, said my case number was WC4589. Total scam, just like the ones others have mentioned but with a different number. Watch out!HMRC8 yearsGot some texts claiming to be police, usual rubbish just pestering me. I just ignored and shut it down. Gonna block that number now.8 yearsMy 85-year-old mum got a call from these idiots saying she’s going to court over unpaid taxes. It upset her badly. Honestly, these scumbags need to be stopped somehow!8 yearsWe’ve been getting calls every week from people saying HMRC and the police have a warrant for our address. We run a business, and it’s really getting annoying now.HMRC8 yearsGot a call at 10:10 from an automated voice saying HMRC wanted to arrest us. Pretty sure it was a scam.HMRC8 yearsI just got a call with an automated message telling me there was a warrant out for my arrest from HMRC. It said if I wanted to avoid problems I should ring back on the given number or another one they mentioned. Definitely a scam, so I blocked the number straight away.HMRC8 yearsGot a voicemail from this number earlier, saying something about the police, HMRC, and an arrest warrant. Total scam, watch out! Never share your details with them.HMRC8 yearsHad a call from a robotic English voice claiming I had an arrest warrant from HMRC. Total scam, just trying to scare people. Best thing is to ignore and not ring back. Absolute scumbags! And a warning to anyone else who shares your number - hands off!HMRC8 yearsI got a call with an automated voice, surprisingly clear and well-articulated, saying there was a warrant out from HMRC. They told me to call them back ASAP if I wanted to stop it. I just hung up straight away - felt like a total scam.HMRC8 yearsGot a call off this number where they pretended to be HMRC and police. It sounded pretty legit, but I ended up hanging up straight away. Just a heads up, watch out for it.HMRC8 yearsGot a call this morning around 10:15, left a voicemail with some robot voice speaking proper English. It was something about VHRMC and said the police had been notified and there’s a warrant out for me. Honestly, how hard is it for these telemarketers to find a normal job instead of scaring people with fake threats over the phone?VHRMC10 yearsSome bloke called himself Cameron, said he was with the RTA or something similar, and claimed I'd been in a car crash. I just hung up. Then he rang back, same guy, asking why I’d ended the call. Told him I hadn’t had any accident and put the phone down again. He phoned back at least half a dozen times, wouldn’t accept that no one here had been in any crash. Kept insisting he had a report from my insurance provider. Well, I’m on the TPS list, and nobody in this house even owns a car!CameronRTATelephone Preference Service10 yearsI got a call from this number, and the person actually knew my name. They claimed to be from some “RTA” and said there’d been a car crash linked to my number. I just told them I’m registered with the TPS and hung up straight away.RTATelephone Preference ServiceSubmit Your Own Report (020 8144 9696)
