Phone number βοΈ 02392160763 π is reported as a frequent scam involving automated calls from an American female voice claiming to be HMRC or a bank representative, warning of urgent legal or financial trouble.

2 yearsGot a call saying my local Lloyds bank had been hacked and I needed to take out cash right away. They had two different people on the line pretending to be security, sounded pretty legit. Thankfully, I checked with some mates who actually work at Lloyds and they told me it was a total scam. Avoid falling for it!Lloyds8 yearsHad a very dodgy call from a woman with an American accent pretending to be HMRC. Seriously, do they think we’re idiots? HMRC always sends letters if there’s something important, they don’t scare people by ringing up out of the blue.HMRC8 yearsFrom the message I got on my voicemail, I had a feeling it was dodgy right away. When I rang back, a bloke called Kevin answered. I asked straight if this was some sort of scam since I checked the number out first. Rather strangely, he said “I love you” and then asked if we could just chat a bit like that. Pretty creepy if you ask me!Kevin8 yearsJust had a call from someone named Sarah Wilton with a similar message. It’s really terrible, especially for people who might be vulnerable and get stressed out. DON’T ring them back, it’s definitely a scam and you could be charged who knows how many pounds per minute. Best thing is to block the number straight away. HMRC would never get in touch like this, so don’t fall for it.Sarah WiltonHMRC8 yearsI got a call from an automated voice claiming to be HMRC, but it sounded very American. They kept stressing the 9 in their callback number, which made me think it’s probably a scam. If you ring back, it’s likely you’ll get hit with a £250 connection charge plus really high minute rates. Better to give it a miss completely!HMRC8 yearsI just got this call a few minutes ago: a message saying, "This is officer Sarah Wilson from HM Revenue and Customs. It’s very urgent. You need to call the hotline on 0239 216 0763 immediately. I’m repeating, 0239 216 0763. If you or your solicitor don’t respond, there will be legal trouble." The whole thing was spoken by a robotic voice with a strange American accent. The bit about "legal trouble" really made it feel dodgy - like some kind of gangster rather than a tax official. Weirdly though, it ended with a ‘take care,’ which almost sounded friendly.Sarah WilsonRevenue and Customs8 yearsLike many others here, I got a recorded call with a American voice pretending to be from HMRC, threatening legal stuff and all that. Total scam, no doubt about it, and honestly I hope they get what’s coming to them. Bit weird though, I’d just settled a tax bill this morning before getting the call, so hoping that’s just a crazy coincidence.HMRC8 yearsGot a call pretending to be from HMRC. Total scam, stay clear!HMRC8 yearsSuch a dodgy scam, really hope something gets done about these muppets.8 yearsWell, I got a call early this morning and it was so rude to be woken up like that! Luckily, I soon realised it was a scam. I was baffled why they even bothered to ring me because my taxes are sorted by my employer. Gotta watch out, there’s loads of these shady calls happening now.8 yearsThis is an utter rip-off, honestly. How come Ofcom still hasn’t put a stop to this yet?!?!?Ofcom8 yearsReally thankful I looked this up first. I do have a tax payment owing, so I almost rang back, but the way they spoke was way too aggressive to be from HMRC. Not sure what would happen if you did call them, but it definitely doesn't seem wise to return the call.HMRC8 yearsA woman called saying she was from the tax office and told me to hire a solicitor right away. She cut off straight after. I decided to look up the number and I’m so glad I did. It really sounded quite threatening. Hopefully no one else falls for this nonsense.8 yearsJust had a missed call from Sarah Wilson claiming to be from HMRC and she left a voicemail. Sounded really threatening, saying I needed a lawyer and that it was urgent with a strict deadline. There’s got to be a way to report this number, it’s dodgy for sure.Sarah WilsonHMRC8 yearsYeah, for sure it’s a scam. I got a call from someone called Sara, sounded super scary at first. Did a quick search and the number showed up as from Portsmouth, so it looked legit at first. Gotta watch out with these, especially when they ask you to ring them back - sometimes they slap on crazy premium charges and keep you talking forever. Better to be safe than sorry!SaraAmericaPortsmouthStates8 yearsGot a voicemail with an American accent supposedly from HM Revenue and Customs saying I'd better call them back at their number or else there’ll be “serious consequences” - they repeated it twice! Totally dodgy, don’t even bother with it, just block straight away.HM RevenueCustoms8 yearsFor sure a scam. The last place I gave my number to was Airbnb, so I’m guessing they might’ve shared it or something. Doesn’t feel right at all.:/Airbnb8 yearsJust like a few folks here, I got an automated message from a lady with an American accent, saying she's calling from HMRC and it’s urgent to ring them back. Honestly, I get why it might freak people out but don’t stress. HMRC would never reach out like that. Most definitely some dodgy scam, best to just block it and move on.HMRC8 yearsJust tried ringing the number again but from my mate’s phone and it’s definitely not HMRC. The bloke that answered sounded like he had an Asian accent and wouldn’t chat until I gave him the number I’d called from. When I didn’t want to share, he just cut me off. Pretty sure it’s a scam.HMRC8 yearsI got an automated message from a US number pretending to be from HMRC, saying I had to ring back quickly or there’d be serious consequences. Just like a few others here, it definitely sounded dodgy to me.HMRC8 yearsWhenever I get a missed call from an unknown number, I make sure to look it up first. It's a relief to see other folks leaving comments too because I was seriously stressing that maybe it was my solicitor ringing. There's no way I'm calling back, not a chance.8 yearsGot a call from an unknown number, but didn’t pick up as I didn’t recognise it. They left a voicemail which I later played back. It was some automated American voice saying the call was urgent and I had to ring back straight away - it repeated the number twice. They talked about solicitors and tax stuff, which made me feel really uneasy. Honestly, I can see why folks might be scared by calls like this.8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be Officer Sarah Wilkins, said they were with HMRC but had a US accent. They were threatening legal action if I didn’t answer their questions. Definitely sounds like a money scam to me. Feels pretty concerning that folks might actually believe it.Sarah WilkinsHMRCSubmit Your Own Report (023 9216 0763)
