The Soutport Visitors website appears to follow this up mentioning Soutport residents have been alerted to the scam and quotes an email where the HMRC say there has been no breach of HMRC security.

Looking at mobile9.com for the Samsung G810 it links to the Symbian S60 3rd Edition Software category.
Assuming they are correct, then it's possible they will work for your phone e.g. the nokia n76 is an S60 3rd Edition 240x320 device: http://www.forum.nokia.com/devices/N76 so therefore the apps they have down for that phone could work on the Samsung G810.
No promises though.

I agree. I think most people that read the article probably aren't using IE anyway.
However, the BBC is advertising it quite a bit and as the BBC appeals to both technical and non-technical computer users it may make the non-technical users aware that other browsers exist, which may cause a few to investigate and switch.
