Watch out for HMRC Scams
It could be a scam if it:
1. is unexpected, 2. offers a refund, tax rebate or grant, 3. asks for personal information like bank details, 4. is threatening, 5. tells you to transfer money
You can be sure that HMRC will:
1. only ever call you asking about a claim or payment on a debt that you already know about, 2. never leave a voicemail threatening legal action, 3. never give the reason for a call on a voice message
If you receive any communication through WhatsApp claiming to be from HMRC it’s a scam.
