    On grounds that I do not have a motor at present, I guess I would be dumb to fall for this - LOL.

    Twice today I've had a new scam call (well, an old one using a new number anyway). It purports to be a recorded message "...from Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs..." urging me or my solicitor to call their number straight away before "...action may be taken".

    As the number given (both as the displayed caller and in the recording) starts with 0203129..., and belongs to an outfit called 'Localphone Limited' I very much doubt it's genuine... :)
