That text about an overdue traffic ticket is probably a scam


Consumer Alerts from the Federal Trade Commission

By BCP Staff

Chances are, you've gotten a scam text about unpaid toll charges or know someone who has. 
Now scammers are going even further and pretending to be the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) from states all over the country. They insist that you pay for an "overdue traffic ticket" and threaten to suspend your driving privileges (among other things) if you don't.
