Tax Refund Number 2009HMRC827141476XZ/925

I’m a US citizen. Why would I be receiving a “tax refund” from the UK? I wouldn’t. This is an attempt to get your personal info and once they get it, they can declare open season on your bank account. If you receive this, delete it. If you reply, they will start demanding money. I’ve copied the bogus form below the original spam e-mail.
