Well... that's a new con trick!
This has just turned up in my in-tray, headed "Tax Refund" (as the tax return deadline approaches)
<realistic HMRC logo shown here>
TAX REFUND CONFIRMATION
After the last annual calculations of your fiscal
activity we have determined that you are eligible to
receive a tax refund of 1,567.58 GBP
Please Click "Get started for refund"
Best Regards
HM Revenue & Customs

If I hover my cursor over the link I see that it's a 'tinyurl' link instead of a GOV site. Needless to say, I didn't click on
the link.
Also I've just posted last year's tax return on-line and got a £43 rebate...
Just be careful out there, folks!

These were flying about this time last year, I got them on a regular basis. Just deleted them, just like I do with any e-mail that my hot mail account
receives.
