It's our favourite time of the year again!!!! No, not Easter 🐣 it's Tax Year End, also known as SCAM SEASON!
Below is an email proporting to be from HMRC, goody, they owe me money! 🥳
The link takes me to an amazing dupe of HMRC where I can tap in my Government Gateway & password. This will undoubtedly take you to a second factor authentication process...... Now they've grabbed all you personal & tax information, everything they need for identity theft!
Keep your wits about you folks. as I've said before HMRC will never contact you by email! The most you'll get is an email saying there's a message in your portal. There will not be a link in the email to click to the gateway, you'll always have your search for it. HMRC will send you brown envelope letters if they want to tell you something. Take care, be aware!
