The scammer who wrote this scam clearly has skills which could be put to much better use. The form that is attached to this scam gets sent to a domain that, according to Whois, has been registered by someone in Ireland. However, the billing address for it is in America, as is the IP address from which this email was sent.
This certainly doesn’t come from HMRC and you aren’t due a tax refund. If you really are expecting a tax refund, telephone your local branch of the Inland Revenue. The Inland Revenue DON’T send you a random email, without your name etc. If you are due for a refund, they write to you – a real, old fashioned letter in a real, old fashioned envelope.
If you make the mistake of filling in this form, contact your bank IMMEDIATELY so the scammer can’t empty your bank account.

Thank goodness for search facilities! I too was just offered £625 from Helen Hughes. Gosh…but it looked really convincing! Thank you for keeping me aware of the ruthless gangsters out there!! xx
July 29, 2012 @ 4:54 pm
I have also recieved this scam for £625 from Helen Hughes. I have notified friends on facebook warning them not to reply to this email. Hopefully the law ( or hmrc ) will catch these scammers soon. They are a blight on the earth!!
July 27, 2012 @ 11:51 pm
I have received this e mail twice this week from Helen Hughes. It was for £625 though. Typed tax office number into google and it brought me here. Knew it was a scam but could understand how some people would fall for it. Easy money and all that. Thanks for website warning people.
July 27, 2012 @ 7:09 pm
I have received so many of these emails. Must get at least 4 or 5 a week in my inbox! All from Frank,Michael,Tina,Lisa,etc etc.. The list of names goes on and on..These names are used in differing variations.It is now getting rather tedious and too funny. They must be all from the same family or something.I am now waiting to receive an email from the cat’s mother!or the cat’s mother’s father!
Seriously though,please everybody do not under any circumstances open that link in the email. If you are unsure you can always ring the real HMRC to verify that these emails are being sent from scammers.
July 23, 2012 @ 8:10 am
I just got the same email. I get ones like this all the time. Its so fustrating. I think you’d have to be pretty stupid to fall for it though.

Just had 2 emails from “Tina Frank” saying I was owed some money on a tax rebate, thought it was a bit dodgy as they didn’t use my name and it went straight to my junk mailbox, it looked very real though and almost fell for it so I googled the name “Tina Frank” and it brought me here, hopefully there’s a lot of other people that think the way I have a don’t get conned out of any money 🙁
May 30, 2012 @ 9:14 pm
This website looked so real and since the HMRC actually owe me money I almost fell for it.Unfortunately I have already opened the attachment and wrote back, too. Luckily I did not enter my personal details into the form although I was very close to it.
Thank God I checked who Tina Frank was first and Thank God for websites like these!!!!!

The body of the mail is similar to previous ones reported and the e.mail address + relatively modest ‘refund’ might trick some people into thinking this is not a scam. Clearly there are variations on this scam and it’s a time of year when people might hope to be receiving a refund.

Hi all, just received the scam email from Helen Hughes today, I guess I can just say, do not ever trust such email, cause HMRC never ever sends email, they have charged help line. lol, that people must be completely naive if they think we will provide card details and even insert amount to be credited, pfff, HMRC never take card details, only sort code and account number.

Thank for alerting us about this scam. Any unsuspecting person would fall a victim. It took me some mintues to decide on this email because it was perfectly done.
I had to key in the local tax office id in google to bring me to this website to know that i had fallen a victim to scammers. I am advicing every one to check on emails he or she is not sure of receiving to expose such scammers.

Heading:
Tax return – 2009/2010 – Recalculation of you tax refund
Just received this email today 3/10/10. Notice the grammer ( you ) instead of ‘your’. I didn’t even open this email up to see how stupid it sounded.

My situation is exactly the same as Mr Easton’s. I too did a search on the ID number which brought me to this site. Thank you, Keepsafe! 🙂
Just for reference this is what was put to me in my e-mail:
TAX RETURN FOR THE YEAR 2009
RECALCULATION OF YOUR TAX REFUND
HMRC 2008-2009
LOCAL OFFICE No. 3819
TAX CREDIT OFFICER: NEIL ROBINSONTAX REFUND ID NUMBER: 381716209
REFUND AMOUNT: 344.79

Just got this one but with a different name (Neil Robinson) and a different amount of refund (£344.79). Have to admit, I am due money so I checked it out first and found this as the top link. For information, the ID number was the same, as was Preston – 3819. I’ve never dealt with Preston, so I searched for ‘tax office ID 3819’ which brought me here. Thanks, keepsafe! 🙂

I recieve the helen Hughes and the david craig Tax refunds quite regularly always £327.54. Why is it possible to send mail with no trace back to the sender and if there is why is the sender not locked up for … fraud impersonating the revenue etc.which is for the purpose of theft NOT FOR FUN!
thanks Eric Ashmole.
