🚨 SCAM ALERT! 🚨

We’re receiving increased reports of customers receiving scam emails claiming they are due a Self Assessment tax refund for 2024 to 2025. The emails tell recipients they need to claim their refund urgently and asks them to provide personal and bank details.

We will never email you with an urgent deadline to claim a tax refund. To check whether you're due a tax refund, log in securely to your HMRC online account through GOV.UK or the HMRC app. ❌

Always take the time to stop and think if the request is genuine before sharing personal information, clicking on any links or opening attachments. If you’re unsure, don't click on any links and report it to us.
