New phishing scam
HMRC have contacted us about a new phishing scam in the form of an email claiming to be from HMRC and using the subject of “Complaints”. As with most of these scams the attachment contains malware, and should not be opened.
HMRC have also published a Tax Agent Blog about phishing and staying safe on line. This includes a link to a document illustrating various examples of phishing attacks, including the most recent one mentioned above.
