•••Scam Texts Are On The Rise!

If you receive a text regarding a toll fee, ignore it!•••

I have marked obvious red flags 🚩 to look out for in the future for other similar scams.

example:

——————

(🚩Sender address is not a legit business number or email) Toll Violation Notice:

(🚩Toll companies have your address from your tag, not your phone number. You would receive a notice in the mail) This is your final notice regarding the unpaid toll balance on your account. You must settle the balance within the next 12 hours to avoid severe penalties (🚩Overly aggressive).

Unpaid Balance: $6.69

Due Date: April 17, 2025 (🚩Urgency is silly for a $7 fine)

Failure to pay within this time frame will result in the following:

1.Immediate addition of late payment fees to your balance

2.Suspension of your vehicle registration by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)

3.Collection actions, including a negative report to your credit file

Please make your payment promptly to avoid these severe consequences and protect your driving privileges.

Pay Now:

https://sunpass.com-random.random/us (🚩subdomain built out to look like a legit domain.)

If the link fails, reply with 'Y', exit the SMS, and reopen it to activate the link, or copy and paste it directly into your browser to complete your payment.

This is your last opportunity. Pay now to avoid irreversible consequences.——

••• You can safely Ignore or report these texts. Not even debt collectors can be this aggressive.•••
