HMRC warns of tax refund scam

Posted on Tuesday, 02 February 2010 10:18AM by TR
HM Revenue and Customs have issued an important security message, as follows:


“An email from 'HMRC Online services - test@test.com' is being issued, stating the recipient has 1 new ALERT message, and should log into their Online Account to read the message.

The email contains a link to a fraudulent website that requests the disclosure of personal account information and password. The email is not from HMRC. If you have received a copy please forward it to us at phishing@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk. “

We would ask that all clients remain vigilant and if you receive any email from HMRC that you are unsure about then please contact us for advice.
