Phone number ☎️ 02896002859 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving automated calls impersonating HM Revenue and Customs, often threatening legal action for alleged unpaid taxes. The caller uses fake identities and badge numbers, delivering pre-recorded messages designed to intimidate recipients, including vulnerable individuals and the elderly. Many have confirmed the calls originate from varying numbers, sometimes displaying official-looking contact details to appear legitimate. Responding or calling back risks engaging with fraudsters, often leading to unproductive or suspicious interactions. It is strongly advised to ignore, block these calls, and never provide personal information. Reporting incidents directly to HMRC is recommended to help combat this ongoing scam.
