Trust Helpline
I to was foolish enough to get caught up in one of these schemes but fortunately only for 3 months. I have settled with HMRC but am now receiving emails from the Trust Helpline telling me that they represent Winchester and that I need to purchase a "Deed of release" to avoid having to repay the loan.
Having done some research I'm not sure how they can currently represent Winchester as it was forcibly dissolved in November 2015. Can a company that no longer exists take action?
In addition the "Trust" that the so called loan was made via (Retentia Ltd of Anguilla) does not seem to have ever existed and I can find no record of it at all!
I would be interested to hear the views of othersComment

Targeting those at their lowest ebb is beyond evil!
Do not even consider engaging with these clowns!Comment

HMRC really should be targeting trust helpline.
One of the loan providers is aggressively targeting users of other schemes. However those that ignore them are left alone.
I know others may disagree. But I would change my email address and burn all letters that come from them. Worked for me in another scheme.Comment
