60551 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 60551 👆 is reported as a number used by HMRC to send genuine Government Gateway verification codes for online account access. However, it is frequently exploited by scammers who spoof the number to send fraudulent messages, often including links or alarming claims designed to trick recipients into clicking or divulging personal information. Users commonly report receiving unsolicited codes they never requested, which may indicate attempts to access their tax accounts. Official HMRC communications do not request payments or direct you to click links via SMS. If you receive an unexpected code, it is advisable to treat it with caution, avoid clicking links, and change your account password promptly. Overall, while the number can be legitimate, vigilance is necessary due to widespread scamming activity.

12 monthsGot a message about a government gateway code, but I never asked for it. Bit suspicious, if you ask me.1 yearScam pretending to be from Government Gateway. Do not respond or click the link.1 yearGot loads of texts from 60551 lately, all asking for some government gateway code. Pretty obvious it’s a scam, so I just ignore them.1 yearThis number’s legit for HMRC when they send you a code to sign in, but scammers also pretend it’s theirs to trick people. They’ll send fake texts with links hoping you’ll fall for their scams. Just so you know, HMRC won’t ever send you an SMS asking for payments or telling you to click a link. So be careful, those messages are usually fake.HMRC2 yearsGot a message from 60551 saying they're sending a code for the UK Government Gateway. I didn't ask for it at all... pretty sure it's just spam.UKGovernment Gateway2 yearsReceived a text from this number and it looked dodgy as hell. Didn't bother and just deleted it straight away.2 yearsI got a text from 60551 about accessing my government gateway account, but then Google popped up a warning saying it might be spam, which left me really confused. Does anyone know if that number really belongs to HMRC or is it some dodgy scam?GoogleHMRC2 yearsI got a Government Gateway code sent to me, but I never asked for it. Pretty weird, not sure if someone’s trying to use my details or if it’s some kind of mistake.

The weird thing is, these messages pop up at all sorts of times and I get about five a day, all with the exact same code and details. The real Government Gateway only sends a code when you actually try to log in and never repeats the same code twice. Looks like this might be a scam, so watch out!Government GatewayGovernment2 yearsGot a dodgy text that was trying to trick me into clicking a link for hrmc.uk. Total scam, don't fall for it!2 yearsI got a message from a number that looked like it was from the government, but I’m pretty sure scammers can make their numbers seem legit.

If it pops up out of the blue, it’s best to update your password straight away.HMRC3 yearsThis morning my partner got a text claiming to be from Gov Gateway with a code, but it was clearly a scam.
