Protect your information
|
| If someone contacts you saying they’re from HMRC and wants you to transfer money urgently or give personal information, never let yourself be rushed. |
| There are many different types of scam. Some threaten you with immediate arrest for tax evasion, others offer a tax rebate. Do not panic. We will never phone threatening you with arrest, only criminals do that. |
| Take your time and check HMRC’s advice about scams on GOV.UK before you do anything. You can also phone us directly, but make sure you use our contact details on GOV.UK. |
| Never share your HMRC sign in details. Someone using them could steal from you or make a fraudulent claim in your name. |
| The National Cyber Security Centre has helpful guides on how to protect yourself against cyber crime online, which you can find at cyberaware.gov.uk. It also publishes advice on cyber security for businesses of all sizes. |
