02380970839 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02380970839 👆 is reported as a persistent HMRC scam targeting individuals with threatening calls and recorded messages about supposed unpaid taxes. Callers often use automated voices or foreign accents, falsely warning of legal action or arrest, and pressure recipients to return calls or make payments. Multiple attempts may be made within a short period, causing distress. Genuine HMRC communication would not use such tactics or leave messages demanding immediate payment without clear references. Users strongly advise ignoring calls, not returning them, and verifying any concerns directly with official HMRC contact channels. The consensus is that this number is used by fraudsters aiming to deceive people into handing over money. Caution and verification are essential to avoid falling victim to this scam.

Got a call supposedly from BT about dodgy broadband activity. They said my IP would be blocked in a day unless I fixed it. The automated message was poorly spoken and sounded fake. This was the third time in one week I’ve had that call. Can't say I trust their “24 hours” threat!

Got a call saying they were from HMRC, total scam just tryna nick your cash. Best thing is to just ignore and definitely don’t ring them back.

I just received a voicemail from these lot, and honestly, don’t ring them back - it’s all a trick to get your cash. They phoned me today claiming they’d been trying to reach me for a month, saying I’m being taken to court and could be arrested over some dodgy unpaid tax of £4800. Then they started asking which bank I use and if I’ve got enough money to cover the full amount or at least some of it. Seriously, don’t fall for it. Felt proper stressed out after that. :(((((

Got a voicemail and I couldn't help but chuckle. Seriously, who falls for some robotic message claiming to be from .gov? It's just ridiculous! You'd think we'd be smarter than that by now!

I got really suspicious, thought it was a scam at first. Luckily, I had the HMRC number saved already so I gave them a buzz just to be sure. Ended up reporting the whole thing to them anyway.

Got a similar call on 13th Nov 2018, didn't pick up but the voicemail was all about court threats. The automated voice told me to "get ready" or something like that! Proper dodgy scam if you ask me. Wish there was a way to block that number, loads of people could easily fall for it and not know it's a con.

Today, on 13th November 2018, I noticed five missed calls from this number. When I rang back, a man with an Asian accent, possibly Indian or Pakistani, answered without asking for any of my details. He claimed to be from HMRC and said I owed £4500. I quickly told him that was rubbish and he threatened that I’d be arrested and to take the matter to the "courthouse." That word alone gave it away since it's not used here in the UK. I knew straight away it was a scam and ended the call. Just a heads up, don't worry about this - they’re definitely calling from abroad.

Be careful, there are scammers pretending to be from HMRC. My husband just got caught up with them and it’s been nothing but stress. Don’t ever answer their calls or send them any money!

Got a call early this morning around half past eight from someone speaking with an American accent. The message was pretty urgent, saying I needed to ring back straight away because of some matter with HM Customs. Decided it was best just to not bother with it.

this number rang at our place earlier, my missus picked up and she was pretty rattled by what they said. after I looked up where the call came from, it made a bit more sense. honestly, whoever is behind these scams should get a proper telling off!

I got a call out of the blue saying it was from HMRC and that if I didn’t ring back, I’d be sent straight to jail or court. At first, it really scared me, but then I realised HMRC wouldn’t be using a robotic voice to threaten me like that. Felt relieved after thinking it through.

This looks like a scam for sure. HMRC usually never leaves messages like that, especially without giving a proper reference number. I'd say the safest bet is to get in touch with HMRC yourself directly.

this is definitely a well thought out con, often aimed at freelancers, if you ring them back they might use some old address of yours and try to convince you that you owe money to hmrc and threaten with legal steps. obviously they want you to pay up straight away on the phone, but dont fall for it! just dont return their call! ive heard from quite a few other self-employed folks who got hit by these scammers as well.

Today I got a voicemail from this number, and it seemed a bit dodgy to me. I’d recommend not answering if they ring you. If you’re unsure about anything, it’s better to contact HMRC straight away.
