Another Tax Refund Scam Warning from HMRC

Posted on 28th June 2018

scam alert Road Warning Sign.

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has issued another warning to taxpayers regarding the latest tax refund scams. These scams are targeting individuals via email and SMS messages.

HMRC is currently processing genuine tax refunds for the 2017/18 tax year and the fraudsters are sending scam messages which claim that taxpayers are entitled to a rebate. These messages go on to request that they provide their personal and account details in order to make their claim.

Revenue officials are keen to stress that HMRC will only ever inform individuals of a tax refund by post or through their employer, and never via email, text messaging or voicemail.

The Revenue are advising taxpayers not to click on any links, download any attachments or provide any personal information, and to forward any suspect messages to HMRC.

Please contact us if you have any queries.
