Tax rebate email from Inland Revenue!
« on: January 09, 2013, 06:12:32 pm »
I had an email before Chrimbo saying that I had been awarded a tax rebate of £144! I'm suspicious of this because they've never emailed me before?
Anyone else had one?

No its a scam. Inland revenue would always send a letter. Put in trash or spam folder.

DO NOT GO ANY FURTHER!!!!!!

 They will ask for your bank details or card details so that they can transfer the rebate! WELL KNOWN SCAM!!!

Sounds like a scam. However, you could ring HMRC and see what they have to say about it.

Send them your card details and let us know how long it takes to receive the funds :)

It's something I refuse to do, H.
But the missus set up a direct debit for me, to pay them every month.
Actually, I'm quite a bit in credit, the rebel that I am.

We've had the same email to our general enquiries and press office email addresses - not even addressed to a person. I've been told not to open it in case it contains a virus.
