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.

I must show thanks to you for rescuing me from this particular difficulty. Right after scouting through the search engines and obtaining strategies that were not productive, I thought my entire life was well over. Living devoid of the strategies to the problems you have resolved by means of this short article is a critical case, as well as the kind that could have in a negative way affected my career if I had not come across your website. The skills and kindness in playing with almost everything was useful. I am not sure what I would've done if I had not come upon such a point like this. It's possible to at this time look forward to my future. Thanks for your time so much for the expert and effective guide. I will not be reluctant to endorse your web page to any individual who needs to have direction on this subject.
