Calahonda Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Sorry folk but I did contact them and that is the response I got. That is exactly what they told me, and how do they contact you by e-mail or mobile number if you haven’t supplied them, many folk don’t have land lines these days?

Kidorry Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 I got one today informing me that I have got a tax refund of £344 and they wanted me to send all my bank details in order to refund me the said money. I rang H.M.R.C. and they asked me to forward the e-mail to them and they said they would never send an e-mail for a refund and would never ask for your details. It looked really genuine. So beware.

melthebell Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 If you receive an email from what appears to be a legitimate source but still have doubts, you can try to "forward" the email. When you do that, you can see the real email address that the email has come from. For example, I have received spam emails from what appeared to be "payments@paypal.com" but when I clicked on the "forward" button, I could see it was actually payments@paypal.com<spammer@xyz.com> So the "payments@paypal.com" was just a name for the spammer's email address, and not his actual email address. you dont even have to do that, just hovver your cursor on the address bit and it will show you the real address too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
