AI Summary
Based on 12 community reports
This number, hosted on Gamma Telecom Holdings, is part of a tax refund scam targeting UK residents. Multiple reports describe fraudulent letters designed to look like official HMRC correspondence, claiming people are owed tax credits or refunds from years ago. The scammers then ask callers to provide bank details and sort codes to receive payments that don't actually exist.
The red flags are consistent across reports: legitimate HMRC contact numbers don't match this one (which you can verify on ), the claims often reference tax credits people haven't received in years, and scammers immediately push for sensitive financial information. One caller reported the operator hung up when questioned about interest charges—typical avoidance behaviour.
Do not call this number or provide any bank details. If you receive a similar letter, contact HMRC directly using the number on their official website. Delete the letter and report it to Action Fraud.

Pattern detected: HMRC or tax scam

Got a letter that looked like it was from HMRC asking me to call a number and give my bank info. It said I was owed some tax credits, but I haven't had tax credits since 2012.
Letter arrived. which also had my NI Number , saying I was owed a tax refund and i should contact them so as to give them my bank details. Also the letter layout looks legit, but the phone number did not match HMRC contact number which you can find on Gov .UK website.

Safety score
12 reportsHow this score was worked out
Each report rates the number as safe, unknown, suspicious or spam. The score combines those ratings, giving more weight to clear scams, and each person counts once. A number only reaches high risk once several people have independently reported it. Scores of 70% and above count as high risk, 40% to 69% as medium, and below 40% as low; a low-risk number reads Maybe Safe once someone reports it as safe. More about spam scores
Why this number is rated High Risk
This number is rated High Risk because 12 of 12 reports classify it as spam or suspicious, and several reports describe the same hMRC or tax scam. No reports identify the number as safe or expected.
