Have you received an unexpected and surprising phone call about an outstanding tax bill? HMRC will never ring up threatening arrest. Only criminals do that.

Always ask yourself - could it be fake? It’s ok to reject, refuse or ignore any requests. Only criminals will try to rush or panic you.

Taking a moment to stop and think before parting with your money or information could keep you safe.

If you have any suspicions, forward emails to [email protected] and
texts to 60599.
