02088088931 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02088088931 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number impersonating HMRC, often delivering automated calls with an American accent claiming there is an arrest warrant against the recipient. Callers urge pressing a number to speak with a case officer, which leads to a foreign-accented individual demanding sensitive information such as National Insurance details. These calls are designed to intimidate and possibly steal identities, causing significant distress, especially to elderly recipients. Many have confirmed HMRC never phones about such matters and always sends official letters. Users strongly advise ignoring and blocking the number, warning others not to engage. There are calls for telecom providers to take stricter action to prevent these nuisance calls and better protect vulnerable consumers.

I got a call from 02088088931 yesterday but I just didn’t answer. A mate at work had told me about this number a while back, so I knew it was probably a scam and gave it a miss.

Here’s the deal; HMRC never calls you on the phone - they only send letters through the post.

My 84 year old mum got bothered by these idiots. Honestly, they deserve to be stuck out in Siberia clearing snow all day.

Got a call from someone claiming to be HMRC. They said there was an arrest warrant against me and told me to press 1 to speak to my Case Officer. Felt a bit dodgy to me.

I received a rather dodgy call today which seemed quite alarming. An American-accented lady was on the line, claiming she needed my National Insurance number. She went on about it being connected to some sort of arrest warrant, which was frankly quite unsettling. Be cautious, everyone!

Got a voicemail that claimed to be from HMRC. I hung up straight away cos I knew right off it was a scam. Honestly, why doesn’t BT just block these calls? Surely they could stop them if they wanted to.

I received a recorded message rambling nonsense about a so-called case. What a bother! These sorts of calls can cause unnecessary anxiety, especially for those who might be more vulnerable. Honestly, I think we should get rid of these local phone numbers altogether!

Just got a dumb voicemail about some “case” and telling me to ring my case officer. Seriously, if you’re dealing with any legal stuff, this call just freaks you out. These annoying local numbers should be outlawed - you’d think phone companies could block them easily. Makes you wonder if they’re part of some dodgy scam...

Received a rather dodgy automated call claiming there was an arrest warrant out for me and they wanted me to respond. Naturally, I pressed 1 as instructed, only to be connected to some chap with a heavy foreign accent who insisted I provide my National Insurance number for verification. I wasn't having any of it and promptly ended the call. I’d advise others to steer clear as well - it's clearly a scam, likely fishing for personal information.

Got a call from 02088 088931 where some American bloke claimed to be from HMRC saying I had a warrant for my arrest. Total scam, obviously. Don’t even bother answering or calling back. Just block the number straight away.

Got a call from a robotic American lady who claimed to be from HMRC, telling me there’s a warrant for my arrest. She said if I wanted to talk to my case officer, I should press 1 or call them back on 0203 962 0336, which isn’t even a real HMRC number! Obviously I ended up just hanging up and blocked the number straight away. This kind of thing is totally dodgy, and I really hope nobody falls for it!

Got a call from someone saying they were HMRC, telling me I had an arrest warrant. When I pressed 1, it just connected to some dodgy VOIP line. They've kept ringing me non stop since.

Got a call supposedly from HMRC saying I had an arrest warrant and to press 1. When I did, an operator came on and I asked for my name. The bloke was proper rude, telling me how I’d like to get f###ed. I just hung up. Then they rang back threatening to track me down, f### me, and even kill me! Sorry for the harsh words, but honestly, everyone should be careful and not pick up if this number calls you.

Got a call from this number too, like the person before me said. They were trying to talk about some sort of warranty related to my car or arrest or something, total nonsense. Seriously, can they just quit calling and let us all have some calm? Cheers.

I just got a call from someone claiming to be HMRC saying there was an arrest warrant out for me. Honestly, only someone really scared would fall for the idea that so many arrest warrants are being made that they'd use a robot voice for it. It's clearly a scam, and it's frustrating how BT won’t do anything to block these calls.

I just got one of those automated calls claiming I had a warrant for my arrest. Bit strange how they “kindly” warned me so I could sort it out or be somewhere else. It’s obviously a scam trying to trick you into handing over cash. Honestly, I wish the authorities would step up and deal with these annoying calls. They ring me all the time.

I got a call off this number earlier, but to be honest, I’d already missed a couple of calls from it. The caller used a recorded message saying they were with HMRS and claimed there was a warrant out for me. They told me I could press 1 to speak with someone handling my case or call back on an 0203 number. Feels a bit dodgy if you ask me.
