What a debt collector tells you and the truth are often far separated.  As others have said you need to find out your true liability from HMRC - have you had any letters directly from them to you personally ?

I have had no letters directly from HMRC as far as I'm aware, the first I knew about this was a letter from a collection agency (pastdue)

No ive had no letters from HMRC direct, just from pastdue credit solutions which was the first i knew about it

You need to answer the questions for people to help. You have a letter from the collections agency - is it addressed to you, or a company name? 

Can you post a copy of the letter, with any personal information blanked out?

Based on a quick Google, Pastdue are a valid HMRC collections agency.
