Fraudulent HMRC emails, text messages and suspicious phone calls

Email

Forward suspicious emails and details of suspicious phone calls to HMRC’s phishing team:
phishing@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk

Forward suspicious text messages to 60599. Text messages will be charged at your network rate.

If HMRC needs to contact you about anything confidential they’ll reply by phone or post.

HMRC never send notifications of a tax rebate or ask you to disclose personal or payment information by email or text message.
