Good morning
This year, GB Revenue taxation office was required to undergo regulatory changes concerning the way we calculate the total taxreturn you are entitled to.
The goal was to provide income subsides to certain groups to make a fairer system for all, but GB Revenue has been made aware of errors in processing of previous returns resulting in refunds below the amount some individuals are legally entitled to.
If you are receiving this email it means that a previous return of yours has been incorrectly calculated and was delivered to our T Team for manual review in order to determine the balance of funds to be deposited in your nominated account.
We apologize for this mistake and we assure you we will credit your account with 450.99 GB P in maximum 48 hours after you file your eclaim.

It is a scam.
