Its fake. Inland Revenue doall their business by post; if you were due a tax refund, they would notify you in the post. Just think a minute; when have Inland Revenue EVER asked for e-mail addresses? The best thing to do is search for Inland Revenue on Google or Yahoo or something, and see what the website address comes up as in the search results. If it looks identical then great: lucky you: i'm fairly sure that their website is "www.hmcustoms.gov.uk", but I could be wrong!
It sounds like a fake e-mail to me - a scam.. |

Dont click any links - period.
This is phishing to get your national insurance number and steal your identity. |

This is a scam. DO NOT GIVE ANY PERSONAL DETAILS TO ANYONE ON THE INTERNET CLAIMING TO BE THE INLAND REVENUE. |

Inland Revenue will never send-mail, they send all their corresponded by post,Yellow envelops, just ignore it, or maybe you can call your local tax office and report this. Do not complete any forms with any information about yourself. |

If you're still not sure give HM Revenue a phone tomorrow, they will confirm this was not sent by them. |

Scam, scam; all they want is your personal info for Identity Theft and credit card fraud. The site is fake. They do this scam by phone too.
NEVER TRUST ANY EMAIL or CALL.
If you have any doubt then go personally to the Tax Office, they'll expalin you that this is fraud. |

Sounds to me like it's almost definitely phishing. Especially because they only give you 48 hours to complete your claim.
If you have reason to believe it could be real or want to be sure, I would suggest you look up HM Revenue site through some other means and find the customer service number and ask them about it. |

If it was them, they would send you a letter, where they can be practically sure that you will receive it. It sounds like spam, just delete it and foget about it. |

if it was HM revenue the address would finish with .gov.uk that doesn't seem like a government website to me. |

I've just recieved the exact same e-mail....
For the exact same amount..
I have contacted HMRC and have been assured that this
is a scam and is being investigated.
The Email address registers back to a High School in Dallas. |

Not genuine. Do not send any personal details. Why not print off the e-mail and take or send it to your local office. |

I agree with H Potter, it is a scam, please ignore it. I had an email from the "bank" recently saying someone had been trying to access my details, however, when I checked, there was nothing wrong. Contact the revenue immediately and inform them of what has happened, then delete the email. |

I had a similar experience. I won such a large amount of money apparently for nothing. They claimed that they pick my email at random from a database that they supposedly have. I was stupid to even respond to let them know i was not interested.
Some people are computer geniuses and they do this to hack your computer. But I have nothing they can use. Fraud I tell you, fraud. They even give you an address that seem real. and wanted your address so they could mail the check all the way from the UK thats bull!
these are the links they gve me.
