02086388432 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02086388432 👆 is reported as a persistent HMRC-related scam involving automated calls and voicemails that threaten legal action unless the recipient calls back. The messages are often aggressive, use intimidating language, and may reference a fictitious officer’s name. Victims report poor English accents, requests for personal details, and demand for immediate payment of alleged tax debts. HMRC does not typically contact individuals by phone with such threats, preferring official letters. Multiple users confirm blocking the number and advise others not to respond or engage. Authorities urge reporting such calls to actionfraud and remind the public to verify any tax concerns through official HMRC channels rather than the suspicious number. This is a clear attempt to deceive and extort money, targeting vulnerable individuals.

5 monthsTotal ripoff, and they can't even talk proper English!3 yearsThis number showed up on an email I got claiming to be from "ebay" with a fake invoice. Definitely avoid calling it!3 yearsLooks like this number is linked to a scam where you get an email with a PDF invoice that looks like you bought something legit on ebay. The sneaky bit is the phone number for the fraud team on the invoice is actually this scam number. Best avoid calling it.7 yearsI got a call like this as well. From what I’ve seen, HMRC usually gets in touch through the mail with properly printed official letters. This call was definitely fake and not worth paying attention to.HMRC8 yearsI've received a communication from the number 02086388432, and I'm anticipating a phone call from my solicitor if I don't get back to them soon. Time's ticking away until my return home.8 yearsGot a scary message from a robotic voice saying it was Dennis Grey from HMRC and that lawyers would come after me if I didn’t ring back.

It was a man’s automated voice saying it’s “time sensitive” and I need to call back. Since I’m a pensioner not paying tax, I wasn’t convinced by it at all.8 yearsSomeone was calling claiming to be from HMRC, sounded really fishy to me.8 yearsI got a little anxious for a moment when I answered this 0208 number! The robotic voice sounded so convincing it nearly tricked me. Glad I looked it up here first. Honestly, feels awful to pretend there’s a tax emergency right before Christmas. I've now put the number on my blocked list. Big thanks to everyone who chipped in and to this site for helping out.8 yearsUnbelievable, these crooks are pretending to be from HMRC. Some innocent, vulnerable folks might ring back all worried about their taxes! If you’re unsure, just call HMRC straight on 0300 200 3300, definitely not this number! Blocked them!HMRC8 yearsGot a voicemail from HMRC - just blocked and didn’t bother answering.HMRC8 yearsGot a voicemail saying it was HMRC and I needed to ring back urgently. The weird thing is the message sounded like it came from someone working for a mobile phone company or something - really clear and polished. Still, it didn’t quite feel right, not how I imagine HMRC would do it at all.HM RevenueCustomsHMRC8 yearsMy missus just finished a call with what seemed to be the legit HMRC, she’s hardly ever called them before, if at all. Then right after, she gets this dodgy scam call. Can HMRC actually find out who calls them? Seems a bit sus to me.HMRC8 yearsFAKE HMRC calling. Sounded really threatening and scary. I’ve reported it to actionfraud too. Hopefully they’ll sort these scammers out fast before more people fall for it.HMRCAction Fraud8 yearsGot a suspicious automated call pretending to be from hmrc - total scam, just block and ignore it.HMRCBest8 yearsGot a robot voice saying it’s HMRC, urgent stuff, and to ring back with a lawyer’s info - didn’t bother replying.HMRC8 yearsReally glad there’s places like this to help spot those bloody scammy b*****ds!8 yearsGot a robotic female voice claiming it was important info, pretending to be from HMRC, called a Denis Gray. I just ended the call and blocked the number. Completely daft!HMRCDenis Gray8 yearsReally sketchy scam, best to not ring them back.8 yearsApparently a scam, claiming they're from HM Revenue and Customs.HMRC8 yearsSaid it was HMRC - total scam!HMRC8 yearsDidn’t pick up.

Sounded proper scary and kept pushing, that was the first sign something was wrong. Proper annoyed with it.HMRC8 yearsGot a call claiming to be from HMRC with some nasty tone telling me or my lawyer to ring back about unpaid taxes or else "deal with the consequences". Pretty sure HMRC dont use robo calls like that. Sounds like a scam to me.HMRC8 yearsGot two messages from a robotic voice pretending to be HMRC, saying stuff like call back or else legal trouble’s coming. Same old scam rubbish. I blocked the number straight away.HMRC8 yearsNo reply. Got an automated woman voice. Just like others have said, something about 'Officer Dennis Gray HMRC' and 'urgent message' stuff. Total dodgy scam.Dennis GrayHMRC8 yearsFraudsters for sure.8 years02086388432 petty scammers from Asia. The automated voice saying "take care" at the end was pretty ironic.

Got a call from HMRC warning me to prepare for the fallout.HMRC8 yearsAutomated call from HMRC.8 yearsI thought it was a scam too since HMRC usually don’t ring, they mostly email or write in letters. Just to be safe, I blocked the number straight away on my phone.HMRC8 yearsGot the same call here. "Brace yourself for what’s coming" might be a laugh if these folks weren’t so nasty.8 yearsGot a scary robocall claiming to be from HMRC, felt proper worried at first but luckily spotted it was just a scam.HMRC8 yearsGot a text from these lot and thought I'd mess about a bit by calling them back. I just said my name was ‘John’ and they claimed I owed £3800 in tax - ridiculous, right? I told them that sounded a bit steep and asked if they had the right 'John' - then they just hung up! Tried again as ‘Jimmy’ and he apparently owed a big sum too. Told them I wasn’t ‘Jimmy Carr’ so there must be an error, and they cut off again. Oh, and 'Mr Harry Potter' is apparently in debt to them as well. Definitely an HMRC scam, steer clear!JohnJimmyJimmy CarrHarry PotterHMRC8 yearsGot a recorded message claiming to be from HMRC. When I rang back, they wanted my case number or NI number. Smells like a total scam to me!HMRCNational Insurance8 yearsGot that same annoying robotic message saying I’ll face legal trouble if I don’t ring back! Definite scam from 02086388432.8 yearsTotal con artists.8 yearsIt's a scam, best not to pick up.8 yearsJust got a call from one of those so-called smart robots, but honestly, it’s not that clever. Still, plenty of folks might get tricked by it, so watch out before sharing any personal info. I’m also reaching out to HMRC to let them know about this scam. Would be good if you could do the same. Cheers, ArcHMRCArc8 yearsI got a rather alarming call/message this morning that had me quite on edge at first. However, after a moment’s thought, I realised that HMRC wouldn’t reach out like that. It was reassuring to come across your confirmation that it was part of a persistent scam. I really appreciate your helpful input in clarifying this situation!HMRC8 yearsWatch out for HMRC scams - they’re everywhere!HMRC8 yearsLike they would really threaten me, yeah right!8 yearsdefinitely a s##m, watch out!8 yearsGot a weird recorded message pretending to be from HMRC just now. Straight away, I checked my self-assessment account and found no updates or anything wrong. The message sounded off, especially when it said stuff like "if you or your solicitor don't call us back, expect legal action". Glad I didn't panic - it's definitely a dodgy scam! WATCH OUT, folks!HMRC8 yearsBeware of HMRC phone scam!HMRC8 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, the voice sounded really sketchy, and the bloke with a thick accent asked me for a case number or something. I told him to say that again, and then he hung up straight away. Definitely adding this one to the block list.8 yearssomeone pretending to be from HMRC just called me.HM Revenue and Customs8 yearsGot a recorded message saying they were from HMRC. Honestly, it felt like one of those dodgy scams.HMRC8 yearsI actually rang them back, and they were threatening me with a lawsuit from HRMC, giving me some detailed number. It was quite frightening, so I’m glad to find out this is just a scam.HMRC8 yearsSome muppet who clearly thinks I’m daft!8 yearsBEWARE OF THIS DREADFUL SCAM! Under no circumstances should you pick up the phone, press 1, or return their call. You are completely within your rights to disregard their alarming and over-the-top messages without facing any repercussions. These conniving individuals, often based in India, masquerade as HMRC agents, issuing threats of imminent arrest for supposed unpaid taxes, all in a bid to pinch quick payments from unsuspecting victims! Their tactics are frighteningly manipulative, aiming to exploit the fears of vulnerable individuals, and sadly, they’ve already managed to dupe a number of older folks. Stay vigilant and protect yourself from their deceitful practices!IndiaHMRC8 yearsThis call was defo an HMRC scam, so glad I checked before giving any info.HMRC8 yearsThose sneaky callers from India again, had me fooled for a bit!India8 yearsSaid they was from the tax office.8 yearsJust got a call pretending to be from HMRC, total scam!

I’m retired and can imagine loads of folks getting worried and maybe sharing private details if they called back. WATCH OUT!!8 yearsI was yelling “leave me alone” really loud and all I got was this weird robotic voice on the other end. When I looked up the number, it said something about pos solutions. I don’t use my mobile for work anymore but keep getting calls from loads of numbers like this. It’s getting seriously annoying!POS Solutions8 yearsClassic HMRC scam, beware!HMRC8 yearsGot a voicemail from a woman saying she was Officer Dennis Green from HMRC. Sounded like one of those robot calls, very weird.Dennis GreenHM Revenue and Customs8 yearsYupp, totally agree with you, probs those Indian scammers.India8 yearsTotal HMRC rip off!HMRC8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were HMRC. I’ll double check with the real HMRC, but I’m quite certain they wouldn’t use threats over the phone.HMRC8 yearsTotal ripoff!8 yearsI had the same experience. They said it was from Dennis Green at HMRC. Like others have said, this has to be a scam. I’ve dealt with HMRC before, and this definitely isn’t how they work. If they wanted to warn you legally, they’d send proper letters through the post, usually a few of them before any serious action. Plus, if they do call, it’s always a real person, never some recorded message.Dennis GreenHMRC8 yearsGot a voicemail from this number sayin I needed to ring them back or they’d be gettin my solicitor involved and takin legal steps.8 yearsSame old HMRC scam popping up again but with a different phone number this time!HMRC8 yearsYep, got one too.

They left a number to ring back, but it’s obvious they just want you to phone them and cough up cash. Complete scam, really nasty tactic.HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (020 8638 8432)
