R40 form

munchkin4

I I filled a R40 form in and sent it to HMR&C I have received a letter today stating I have paid to much tax, I got a cheque for £38.31  Which I’m very grateful, however in the same envelope there was another letter stating I had paid to much tax and a cheque will be sent to a Company FCR limited which I don’t know of this company? I have looked on Company house and I cannot recognise any such  company 
please can you advice

You fell for a scam where you thought you were on  the hmrc website but were in fact on this companies. 

Probably nothing you can do, next time be more careful.

As Joe says , a nice little earner for a scammer

Care is needed more and more wherever the mail purports to come from. Sorry for your experience.
