FROM : securemail@hmrc.gov.uk
Displayed as : HM Revenue & Customs Tax Refund Notification

I have now had a number of these, but as im NOT stupid ( as much as it would be nice for it to be true)
i send them all to phishing@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk

which is the address to send any such emails you get.
The government as we should all know NEVER send out emails and well ive never had a tax refund lol!


they want you to open your account so they get your NI tax no and other personal details.
I also get a lot from banks HSBC - but NEVER from the bank i bank with - so again in know its a scam
So just be warned guys an gals!!!


this is the context of the latest email i got
