Fraudulent tax email

Readers in the UK need to be aware of a fraudulent email that is being sent out purportedly from Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs - HMRC.

The email is being sent from 'HMRC Online [email protected]' and says that the recipient has one new ALERT message and should log into their on-line HMRC account to read it. The email contains a link to a fraudulent website that requests the disclosure of personal account information and password.

The email is not from HMRC so do not click on the link. If you have received a copy of the email you are requested to forward it to HMRC at [email protected] and then delete it.
