5 yearsWhen I picked up the call, there was utter silence on the other end.7 yearsGot a call from HMRC again, second time this week!! They keep saying there’s a warrant out for my arrest or whatever. Honestly, if they were serious about it, they’d have found me by now! Who do they think I am, like some kind of criminal mastermind?? Proper scammy idiots!!HMRCRonnie Biggs7 yearsSo, turns out they’re about to pin tax evasion charges on me.

So frustrating! 🤬🤬7 yearsOn 3rd June 2019, I got a call from 02088553119. They claimed our names were on a tax evasion list. Tried picking up the phone, but no one said a word. Definitely a scam!7 yearsReceived a call from this number earlier today. I reckon it's a scam, part of the ever-growing wave of these criminals. Best to steer clear of it. HMRC wouldn't reach out to you in such a sneaky manner; they'd always send a proper letter!HMRC7 yearsLooks like a total rip-off, just like what others have mentioned before.7 yearsI keep getting calls from 02088553119, but luckily my BT phone blocks them every time. When I tried to ring it back, the reply was something like "Number not recognised," so I reckon it’s a fake number, maybe from abroad. Seems dodgy to me.7 yearsGot a call from an American number with a recorded message about tax evasion, sounded proper threatening. Thought it was one of those dodgy scams trying to scare me.7 yearsJust like others have said, I got a call saying there was a warrant for my arrest over tax evasion. Pretty sure it’s another one of those scams.7 yearsThis number rang me up saying there's a warrant for my arrest over some tax thing I supposedly did. I looked it up online and loads of others got the exact same call. Can't believe anyone would stoop to that, it's just disgraceful.Google7 yearsI recently received a rather alarming call from this number, claiming that I was facing charges for tax evasion. I foolishly pressed 1 and provided my name and date of birth before the call just cut out on me. Now, I'm on the line with Tax Credits trying to sort this mess out!7 yearsGot a call from 02088553119 around 11.14 this morning. A woman with a really strong American accent told me there was a warrant out for my arrest by HMRC over some tax dodging and gave me another number to ring back. Total scam, definitely done by some daft idiot trying to scare people!HMRC7 yearsGot a recorded call with some yankee accent claiming I've got legal issues about tax troubles. Fancy ringing them back just to tell 'em to jog on, and maybe drag their awful President along too. Bit creepy but honestly, not really bothered to take it seriously.7 yearsAbsolute scam! They were threatening me saying the tax office was gonna come and arrest me. Can’t understand how anyone gets fooled by this rubbish.7 yearsGot two voicemails from 0203984952 on my answerphone, using some dodgy AI female voice. It said something about HMRC looking into us and that I should find a solicitor. Then, weirdly, it finishes with "have a great day." It’s an 02 number and they want you to ring back. Total scam, I reckon.HMRC7 yearsGot a call from the US around 8.20 in the morning, then I got another one at about 10.02. This second caller claimed to be from HMRC and said I was under investigation. The accent was definitely American. I ended the call straight away and made sure to report it.HMRC7 yearsGot a call earlier from one of those automated messages, sounded like a woman warning me about some claim from HMRC or something. The recording was so dodgy it kept cutting out, making it hard to catch what the scam was supposed to be. Seems like they’re trying to scare you into something but honestly, it just annoyed me. Really sick how folks use these tricks. :(HMRC7 yearsI got a call from someone talking in a really thick foreign accent, saying we were under investigation for tax evasion. Honestly, it was so hard to catch what they were saying properly.7 yearsGot a call from some recorded message claiming they were HMRC and there's supposedly a court case and arrest warrant out for me. Pretty funny since I'm only 17 and don’t even pay taxes! Total scam and definitely just a dodgy trick.HMRC7 yearsMy mum got a call from this number saying she owed more than £5000 for supposed tax evasion. She’s always had part-time jobs and never earned enough to owe any tax at all. They kept threatening her, saying she couldn’t talk to anyone about the call. As soon as she mentioned that to me, I told her to just end the call straight away. They even said she was going to be arrested, but obviously, nothing like that has come to pass. Total con! If this number rings you, don’t pick up.7 yearsGot a voicemail from some bloke with a yank accent claiming there’s a warrant out for my arrest over unpaid taxes and telling me to get in touch. Didn’t ring back though!!! Looked it up online and saw loads of others had the exact same message.7 yearsGot a call from some robotic voice claiming I had legal issues with HMRC. I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.HMRC7 yearsThey said my parents were in trouble for not paying taxes, which really threw them off. Such a stressful and confusing call for older folks.7 yearsGot a call from someone with an American voice claiming HMRC was after me for tax dodging and had a warrant out. Didn’t even stick around to hear the rest.HMRC7 yearsGot a robo-call from "TalkTalk" warning me that my internet was about to get cut off due to some unauthorised use they claimed to have found.TalkTalk7 yearsGot a robo call earlier from someone claiming to be from the UK tax office. They said there was a warrant for tax evasion, but never said which one of the three living here they meant. Totally dodgy, obviously a scam.HM Revenue and Customs7 yearsGot a call from some robotic voice claiming there was a warrant out for me because of tax evasion. What a load of rubbish! I just ended the call straight away.7 yearsI got a call but it just disconnected right after picking up. Definitely some spam for sure!7 yearsJust got a call from this number about 10 minutes back. It was some robotic message telling me I have legal action against me for some tax thing, said I should contact my case worker - which I don’t even have! They gave me a phone number to call, but the weird bit is it wasn’t the same as the one that called me. 100% a scam, don’t trust it.7 yearsGot a call from a woman who sounded American, saying HMRC had put out an arrest warrant against me. It’s the same person who keeps telling me my internet’s about to be cut off. When will she just stop?! Total scam!HMRC7 yearsThey kept ringing but I just let it go to voicemail and hung up straight away. They called back loads of times after that.7 yearsGot a call supposedly from BT Technical saying my internet might have been hacked. They asked me to press 1 for BT support or 2 for another service. I just ended the call.BT Technical TeamBT7 yearsSome idiot American called saying there was a warrant for me and told me to ring them back - what a total con! I've actually had warrants before and usually the cops just show up banging on my door at stupid o'clock in the morning, not some phone call like this. Proper scam if you ask me, don’t fall for it!7 yearsGot a call supposedly from TalkTalk, warning me my internet would be cut off within a day if I didn’t get in touch. Felt a bit iffy about it though.TalkTalk7 yearsGot a couple of messages from a woman with an American accent claiming there’s some sort of warrant against us and we needed to press 1 or call back that number. Total scam, didn't bother with it and just wiped the voicemails from my machine.7 yearsGot a robo call claiming there’s a warrant out for me but never actually said my name. They told me to press one to speak to a case officer. They also gave me a different number to ring back on, which was 0203 9620336. Sounds dodgy to me, so I’ve just blocked the number. Definitely a scam.7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from HMRC, asking for my National Insurance Number and threatening arrest within 30 minutes! Absolutely ridiculous. Big shoutout to the so-called "Officer Emma Johnson" who hung up before I could call her bluff properly. What a joke!HMRCEmma Johnson7 yearsGot a call saying there’s a warrant out for my arrest, then they just cut me off. Didn’t even get to say anything.7 yearsGot a call from some robotic American voice telling me there’s a warrant for my arrest. They didn't even bother to say my name, so obviously not legit. Since I’ve not done anything dodgy that would get me arrested, and would have thought HM Police would’ve showed up by now, I reckon it’s just some scammers trying to waste my time. Blocked straight away.Bobby7 yearsGot a call saying it was HMRC, some recorded voice telling me there was an arrest warrant for me. Then it just disconnected straight away.HMRC7 yearsGot a call from an automated voice saying HMRC had an arrest warrant for me because I supposedly owed money. They told me to ring back to talk to a Case Officer. Since I work for HMRC, I knew it was a scam and reported it to Action Fraud - loads of folks get tricked by this one.HMRCAction Fraud7 yearsI received a rather uncanny automated call from the number 02088553119, complete with an American twang. The message urged me to press 1 or get in touch with my 'Case Officer' at 02039620336. It's clear this is a total scam, though what they ultimately aim to achieve is beyond me. It's appalling that individuals resort to such deceitful tactics.7 yearsAnswerd the phone and got a really loud recorded voice. It was saying something about “this is an important message from Her Majestys.” I just ended the call right away!7 yearsGot a voicemail saying it was from him.c, sounded like one of those automated messages.7 yearsGot a voicemail with a different number to call, total scam alert!7 yearsI got called and was told there was a warrant out for me.

After I ended the call, they rang me two more times within 10 minutes.HMRC7 yearsI saw the number but decided not to answer. After looking it up online and reading the reviews, I'm really glad I didn't bother.7 yearsTurns out calling them “scamming idiots” isn’t really fair, they told me they’re not like that. I ended up hanging up anyway since I wasn’t up for being called Mr Fockwitandson the entire time. I just wish I could recall which company’s email forms I’d put that name on!Fockwitandson7 yearsthe moment my voicemail started, they just cut the call straight away, no message or nothing.7 yearsJust got called by some time-wasting lot again.

What a pain!7 yearsI saw the number but decided to let it ring, didn’t know who it was.7 yearsI got a call where the person wanted me to answer a couple of questions. When I asked which company they represented, he said “you benefits”. I then asked what the questions were for and who had set them, and suddenly he started swearing at me, calling me a f###n b#####h and telling me to just answer before abruptly hanging up. I kinda feel sorry for him; it can’t be easy with the targets they’ve gotta meet, but losing your temper at people isn’t the way to go!7 yearsJust ignored it, looked like spam to me.7 yearsso about an hour back i got a call from some company called euro benefits. it was just a recording so i ended it right away, didnt wanna hear more. later on, a guy with a foreign accent phoned me up asking for me by name. got me thinking this could be some kind of scam. wouldnt trust em.Euro7 yearsDidn't pick up cause I didn’t know the number.Submit Your Own Report (020 8855 3119)
