I just received a text saying that I have an unpaid toll bill. It wanted me to pay $6.99 and had a link to click on that vaguely was correct.
Of course I googled this because no organization is so organized that they send texts to collect money. I found an article about this and this scam has been going on since last year in the east. Since I live in NYC I guess scammers think its time to hit us.
Also the email showed as gmx.us which is a scam domain. Look up the email address and verify the address header if your email program allows it. Most do.
Don’t believe anything you read on texts, voice or email.
