Inland Revenue Tax Scam Alert !!!
Source : http://www.britishembassy.gov.uk/ser...=1053447060015
TAX SCAM ALERT
We have been alerted to a bogus Inland Revenue letter and form P86(1991) which has been sent to British citizens in the United Arab Emirates. The letter refers to the 'Not Ordinarily Resident (NOK)' status of the individual and in particular interest on bank and building society accounts being paid gross. The letter purportedly comes from the non-existent Inland Revenue Central Tax Unit, and requests completion and return of the form P86 (including bank account details). We believe the letter be an attempt to obtain bank account details as part of an identity scam. Should you receive such a letter no response should be sent. If you are in any doubt about such correspondence, contact your local tax office to check their authenticity at www.inlandrevenue.gov.uk.
