I'm not sure if this is related to VM, however I just received an automated phone call from 016156 48563 with a female American accent on my VM mobile number advising I have been identified as fraudulently evading tax and to press button 1.

I hung up and left feedback on https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/submissions/form/report-a-suspicious-HMRC-phone-call

Ignore it, Automated SCAM call. Been happening for a number of years now.

Beware 'HMRC' phone scams

Thanks for the heads up on this.

I'm sick of getting calls from Amazon about a parcel etc along with car accidents etc.

There needs to be a database built by ofcom that lists all the numbers people report then pass them on so all network operators block customers receiving these annoying calls.

Or a simple solution would be for network operators to implement the service where the dialling party has to press 5 before it connects to the dialled number.
