Red Flags Present in the Call
Threats of Legal Action or Arrest: Scammers use high-pressure scare tactics to induce panic so you press a button or hand over money without thinking.
Automated Voice Message: Genuine HMRC calls regarding tax liabilities are made by actual staff after formal written correspondence has already been posted to your home address.
Mobile Number Source: Fraudulent operations spoof random standard mobile numbers or landlines to bypass automated call filters.
Demand to Press a Number: The automated recording will typically prompt you to "Press 1 to speak to an officer," connecting you directly to a fraud operator who will demand immediate payment via bank transfer, cryptocurrency, or gift vouchers.
Immediate Actions to Take
Hang Up Immediately: Do not press any buttons or interact with the recording.
Do Not Call the Number Back: Scammers routinely use number spoofing to disguise their identity; dialling back usually reaches an innocent member of the public whose number was used without their knowledge.
Verify via Official Channels: If you want absolute peace of mind about your tax account status, log in directly to your official HMRC Personal Tax Account or call HMRC using the official contact numbers listed on GOV.UK.
Report the Call:
Text: Forward the mobile number, along with details of the call, to 60599 (HMRC's phishing reporting service).
Action Fraud: Report the attempted scam online at actionfraud.police.uk or call 0300 123 2040.

Natalie, I would suggest messaging Kevin he’s the DWP wizard.
Nick StonesNatalie, I would suggest messaging Kevin he’s the DWP wizard.
i do know that, he is indeed,you are right! just this exact letter David one who posted somewhere and as I mentioned i can't find it.
Regards DWP Overpayments and threats of recovery 😀
Consider this text, use it and see what the agents say, thanks to our Kevin for the inspiration...
Tell them that you want to dispute the overpayment because it was an official error.
they can pause recovery while they investigate.
I formally Request a "Waiver": Since My employer provided my payslips correctly, I am asking the DWP to "waive" the debt because I have acted in good faith and the error was the DWP,
I have done nothing wrong.
I request a Mandatory Reconsideration.
I and my employer provided accurate information via my payslips each month.
Universal Credit had all the necessary data to calculate my payments correctly.
Because I acted in good faith and the error sits entirely with the DWP's failure to process my reported income accurately,
I am requesting that you waive the recovery of this debt.
Repaying this amount now would cause significant financial hardship.
Review this decision under the Mandatory Reconsideration process.
