Fraud Alert:
Scammers are impersonating trusted organizations to steal personal and financial information through a tactic called Smishing. These fraudulent text messages often create urgency, demanding immediate payment and directing you to fake websites. Recently, a surge of spam messages has been posing as SunPass, falsely claiming overdue toll payments and threatening to revoke driver’s licenses if left unpaid. If you receive a suspicious message claiming to be from SunPass, do not click any links and log in directly to your SunPass account to verify any outstanding payments.

Help them claim the top spot by voting daily through March 10th.
