Any of these 'schemes' (and there are hundreds of them) will, at best, defer the tax that you owe. If you live and work in the UK you are liable for UK taxes - if you are outside IR35 set up a limited company and you will then be able to draw dividends from the company. If you are inside IR35 you absolutely must, no alternatives, no exceptions, be paid through PAYE whether through a limited company or an umbrella.
