Sometimes the email pops up with the name of the person at the top, rather than displaying the email address, but when you open up the email address is was something like
hmrc.pst@btopenworld.com.
Obviously she didn't fall for it, but the email looked pretty legit, so unfortunately I imagine some people do.
Always report/block is the way to go.
I got that one as well. Ignored it as any rebates are usual paid back when/if your tax code changes.
