Alabama Scam Alert: Fake Toll, Parking, Speeding Texts
Description
Alabama drivers are being targeted by a sophisticated text message scam, with fraudsters posing as official agencies to demand payments for unpaid tolls, parking tickets, and speeding violations. These fake notices, complete with a bogus Alabama state seal, contain numerous red flags, including incorrect court names, fake state codes, and non-existent DMV agencies. Local departments like Albertville PD are warning the public to ignore these scams, as real court summonses or traffic tickets never arrive via text. If youve been targeted, contact your bank and file a complaint with the FBIs Internet Crime Complaint Center immediately.
