The number that HMRC uses to contact taxpayers via text message has changed. For more information, please go to check a list of genuine HMRC contacts on GOV.UK.

HMRC is reminding taxpayers to remain vigilant about scams. If taxpayers are in any doubt whether contact is genuine, they are advised not to reply directly to anything suspicious but contact HMRC straight away. More information on scams can be found on GOV.UK.
