Hmrc Scam?

[tearinghair]

Have just noticed in my Spam box an email supposedly from HM Revenue and Customs with the subject 'Submit your tax refund'. I smell a rat.... surely they just call themselves HMRC, and wouldn't they say 'tax return' not 'refund'? I'm disinclined to open it, but what if there is a refund due? (I doubt it). Has anyone had a similar message?

If I opened and followed my spam instructions I would be going out with Masie with the big boobies, have a penis the length of my arm, an erection like Nelson's Column, an armful of fake Rolex.......the list goes on.

Don't even open them, just highlight them as phishing.

I think you've confused one of my posts with one of Spoonboy's, factor-fiction, but no problem. Thanks for all the interesting and helpful replies, guys. And as for the last post, I too have had these offers but as I shall be officially old on Saturday (and am female into the bargain) they haven't convinced me!
