	I have just had one telling me that there is an arrest warrant out for me because I owe taxes to Her Majesty’s Inland Revenue. Poor scammers are going to have to change all their automated messages to His majesty’s

Just saw another scam reported in the paper - asking for bank details so that all this money we are being given towards our energy bills can be paid in - needless to say that's not how it will work. Sadly I presume some people will all for it and be even worse off.
