03445439199 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 03445439199 👆 is reported as a persistent and widespread scam linked to fraudulent HMRC debt collection claims. Callers often use automated messages referencing personal or business debts, urging recipients to press a number or provide sensitive information. Many highlight poor or foreign accents, vague company names like LCS or LCF, reluctance to share details, and no legitimate correspondence. Although some suggest LCS may be a genuine debt agency working with HMRC, the overwhelming consensus is to treat these calls as suspicious, as HMRC typically does not outsource directly in this manner. Recipients are advised not to engage, avoid sharing personal data, verify via official HMRC channels, and block the numbers to prevent further nuisance and potential fraud.

Got a call earlier today from someone with a thick foreign accent, couldn't make out much. They claimed I owed money to HMRC and asked me to ring them back. Since I know I don’t owe HMRC anything, I’m not bothering to call them back. They’ve called before using different numbers too. It’s a pain having to look up who it's from every time, but better safe than sorry. Definitely smells like a scam to me.

About half an hour back, I dropped a note here. The caller had really bad English and left a voicemail saying I owed money to HMRC, which isn’t right at all. After I posted my comment, I looked up the real HMRC number - it’s 0300. This is clearly a scam and a pain in the neck. I’ve blocked several numbers like this before, but they just keep calling from similar, slightly different numbers. Annie.

I received a message purporting to be from LCF, offering assistance with some sort of HMRC arrears. However, after logging into my HMRC account, I found that there's absolutely nothing outstanding, nor have I received any correspondence from them. It's rather strange because the number resembles the authentic LCS digits, but they didn't bother to leave a voicemail. So, I’ve decided to block them.

Got a call late last night from a polite woman who was reluctant to say what company she was from. After pressing her, she finally mentioned LCS but wouldn’t give any more details. She asked for personal info before explaining why she was calling. We refused to share anything and she said a letter had been sent to us. Rang HMRC this morning and they confirmed they hadn’t sent anyone out. Definitely a scam caller.

A guy from LCS phoned me this morning claiming a client had referred me. When I asked for the client's details, he wouldn’t give any. I then asked what LCS stands for, and he said it’s not an acronym, just a business name. I tried to find out what the company actually does, but he refused to say. Then he said he couldn't share any info while trying to put me through some kind of security check - had me chuckling! Obviously, I just hung up there and then.

I received a call earlier today from an automated system that inquired about some business issue and instructed me to press 1 to talk to an agent, which I did. A chap eventually answered, claiming to represent a company he referred to as LCF (or something similar) and mentioned they operate on behalf of clients. However, he insisted that without answering a series of data protection questions, he couldn’t proceed with our conversation. I replied, “Of course, but could you furnish me with your full name, address, date of birth, and National Insurance number, seeing as I'm unfamiliar with your firm?” He only provided me with his first name and flatly refused to divulge any further details! When I pressed him for the data protection checks, he stated that he couldn’t continue unless I complied, and promptly cut the call.

I had a rather unsettling experience with a call from this number. A gentleman on the line, who claimed to be representing LCF, mentioned my name as if he knew me personally. He proceeded to state that it was a confidential issue and insisted on taking me through their security protocols. Naturally, I was curious about who his client might be and how he managed to obtain my number, but he dodged my questions entirely. Sensing something off, I made it clear that I wasn’t about to divulge any personal details to someone I’d never met before. I also mentioned the regulations surrounding such calls, including GDPR. His response was to suggest I could simply hang up, which is exactly what I did without hesitation. The number that rang me was 03445439199 - I'd strongly advise caution if you happen to receive a call from this number.

The caller said they were from LCS. I told them I didn’t know anyone named Elsie and asked what the call was regarding. They claimed they’d sent a letter and needed to talk about a personal issue. I told them I don’t discuss private stuff with people I don’t know and told them to buzz off. I blocked the number, but later on, they rang me again on my landline.

I received a call at 1:35 PM today from someone claiming to be from LCS, insisting that one of their clients had dispatched several letters to me. They started probing for my personal information, but I immediately challenged them, asking for their identity since it's unwise to share such details over the phone. At that point, they abruptly hung up on me. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!
LCS

they just try to grab any info they can from you. When I asked what the company actually does, all they said was look online to see their partners - so the person on the phone has no clue about the business? Sounds really dodgy to me… way too suspicious.

I received a call that started off with a recorded message requesting to speak with my company, which struck me as odd since the topic was something private. They prompted me to press 1 if I was in agreement, so I went ahead and did that. However, shortly thereafter, I was informed that all representatives were tied up at the moment. At that juncture, I decided to end the call. It could be a legitimate inquiry, but I've got a nagging feeling it’s more likely a scam.

I didn’t pick up cause I didnt know the number. Kinda weird that now they are using 0345 numbers since they look proper official. Also, when the caller has a well spoken English accent (like none of the usual Indian voice with a really unlikely English name), chances are it’s a pre-recorded message or maybe an AI bot that just reads from set scripts. If you try to say something unexpected, it’ll either just keep repeating or hang up. Honestly best option is to not say anything at all. If the message repeats itself, you know it’s just a recording.

I just got a call on me phone and the lady mentioned my business. She said they’d sent letters and asked if I had received any. I told her no, and she reckoned the post must have been held up because of the strikes.

Spoke to a lady with a really authentic English accent who claimed it was urgent and that I had to pass security checks. I told her I wouldn't do that unless I knew who was ringing. She wouldn’t say who was calling but mentioned something about letters in the mail? Felt iffy about it so I ended the call. Checked online afterwards and sure enough, TOTAL SCAM!
