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.

Your primary know-how and kindness in dealing with a lot of stuff was crucial. I'm not sure what I would've done if I had not come across such a point like this. I can also at this point look ahead to my future. Thank you very much for the specialized and effective help.

I needed to compose you this tiny observation to thank you very much once again for the splendid ideas you've shown on this page. It's unbelievably generous of people like you to allow without restraint exactly what most of us would have marketed as an e book to make some cash for their own end, most importantly seeing that you could have tried it if you desired. These solutions in addition served to be the good way to know that the rest have the same passion the same as mine to learn a little more in regard to this condition. I am sure there are millions of more pleasant sessions ahead for those who examine your website.
