I'm sure most of you are aware of the phoney emails purporting to come from HMRC concerning tax refunds. I've just had one saying that I am owed £5,900 (thereabouts) and that I am in contravention of new legislation if I don't claim it.
Ha ha!!

Some of you may not be aware however, so please do take care. If you receive one just forward it to:
[email protected]

I'm tempted to reply just saying "up yours" or something ruder but then I met get more problems so I'm restraining myself.

Ah ha! So the lowlife that has been texting me to ask where to deliver a fictitious package has taken the hint - yes I did tell them to shove up their a***s - has finally moved on.

These disgusting individuals will stop at nothing seemingly. We just have to be vigilant but I must admit, some of their attempts look so genuine.

I've had some of those emails too. I think I'll try your method next time.

The chap telling me my Visa had been used for an expensive purchase this morning got both barrels and a mouthful of expletives too, when he told me to go and find my card and he’d check the number. Obviously I must’ve been having a bad day!
