The Office of Tax Simplification (“OTS”) has been made aware of people receiving correspondence using the OTS logo and signatures to request payment of ‘tax’. The OTS is not a tax collection agency, and the correspondence is not legitimate and is a scam.
If you receive any demand for payment of any kind claiming to be from the OTS, report it to the National Cyber Security Centre by forwarding the email to report@phishing.gov.uk. More guidance is available on GOV.UK at Avoid and report internet scams and phishing: Report internet scams and phishing.
