Hoax email from HMRC regarding Tax Refund

Have you received an email with the subject along the lines of: 

Tax Refund File Number 2009HMRC2918291UK2/164

purportedly from HM Revenue and Customs?

Please note this is a 'phishing scam'.  HMRC NEVER email taxpayers to notify them of tax repayments.

The email has clearly come from USA as several parts of the message such as 'Tax Refund Number' and 'fiscal activity' have no pertinence to the UK tax system 

Please do not provide any personal or card details. Please delete the email and if applicable report it as spam to your email spam filter provider.
