Council Tax Scam

Kent County Council Trading Standards is warning the public of fraudsters who are telephoning to tell them they are in the wrong council tax bracket and are owed a rebate of around £6,000.

Scammers will ask for an up-front fee of around £65 in order to process the payment, but no rebate will be issued.

You can check your council tax band for free by contacting the Valuation Office Agency.
