I was contacted last week by the HMRC confiscation unit to advise that that was a chunk of money waiting for me.
The chap I spoke to advised that there was money allocated to a number of victims available, but as some of the victims had closed their companies/changed their addresses he was struggling to find them to return the monies.
If anyone here is affected email WY-NE-ConfiscationUnit@justice.gov.uk. Reference 'Darren Upton' Case.Comment

I get calls from people at HMRC with stories like that. They are all scams. I would beware contacting that email address!
