Received an automated message claiming to be from HMRC, threatening legal proceedings over alleged tax evasion. Definitely sounds like a scam to me!

Been away abroad for a couple of weeks and just noticed two voicemails waiting for me. They were telling me I'm being investigated for something, spoken with a very strong American accent. Honestly, it’s a bit frightening.

Had the exact same thing happen to me. Absolutely a con!

something very similar happened to me, this person rang me up saying i was being looked into for tax fraud, and i had to answer questions right away. they even said they'd send officers to my job if i didn’t comply.

Got a call from someone pretending to be HM Revenue, telling me I was being investigated. They wanted me to ring them back, but it was definitely a scam. Don't fall for it!

Today, I got a call from a number claiming to be HMRC. They said I was being looked into for some issue and warned that if I didn’t ring them back by tonight, they’d send officers round to my place. Total scam, obviously. I’ll be reporting it as dangerous since this kind of thing could scare some folks, even though it didn’t really faze me at all.

Got a call from this number too, which was a bit off since I'm waiting on my visa from the Chinese embassy. They definitely don’t have my phone number, just so you know. Still, it’s pretty unsettling, especially for anyone who might be feeling vulnerable to get calls like this.

definitely feels like a scam call. they said they were from hmc customs but then started talking about legal stuff. they mentioned some names too but i'd say best to stay away from them. quite shady if you ask me.

They said if I didn’t call them back, they’d send the police to my work. Definitely felt a bit shady to me.

Got a strange automated message threatening me with arrest if I don't ring them back today. Felt pretty sketchy to me.

Just got a call moments ago about some supposed case against me - the bloke said he was an IRS officer called Jake Hoffman. I rang back using a different phone and a woman answered, also claiming to be from the IRS. But when I questioned her a bit, she just hung up. Tried calling again and they then said I had the wrong number! Seems dodgy to me, because when did the IRS start making arrests here in the UK? Total scam if you ask me.

Got a voicemail from a bloke speaking with a kind of Chinese-American accent, saying something about a lawsuit against me. He said to ring back or they’d be sending officers to my work. Doesn’t sound legit at all, and there’s no way I’m bothering to call them back.

Just got a call like that too. Haven't bothered ringing back yet, but I’m guessing it’s probably one of those scams?

This definitely seems like a scam from someone in China. The first few calls are just automated messages that sound like some radio news show, but the way they talk is a bit off - sort of like the badly translated guides that come with cheap Chinese gadgets. Afterwards, you get voicemail from a bloke speaking with a weird mix of Chinese and American accent, warning he'll send “offices” to your workplace. For me, it's mostly just annoying, but I get why some might fall for it and end up calling back or even handing over cash.
