‘Unpaid tax’ for MacBook
I’ve never bought an Apple MacBook, so I’) saying that I owed money for the device. What makes this scam even more odd is that it claims HMRC wants the cash because it’s “unpaid tax”. It threatened me with arrest unless I paid within 48 hours. I was meant to phone a number to hand over the money, or click the Pay Now button. The email subject line sounded plausible enough (‘You’ve got a money request’), but it’s as blatant a scam as you’re ever likely to see.
