[graz]

Also the Inland revenue dont send out demands etc via emails ;-)

The links in those always go to something sounding simlar blablah.revenue etc and not like the real deal [URL="http://www.hmrc.gov.uk"]HM Revenue & Customs: Home Page[/URL]

Makes you wonder how many do actually click on those links and fill info in though!

I am sure that domain in Hawks post will be dead pretty soon , they dont last long before they are nuked, but up long enough to sucker some in i dare say sadly.
