Scammers continue to target E-ZPass users with fake text messages claiming they owe money on their accounts. To avoid falling victim to these scams, follow these steps:
If you receive a text message from a suspicious number claiming to be E-ZPass, do not click on the link provided. Links in such messages can install malware on your computer and put your personal data at risk.
Never send money to the scammer. Instead, contact E-ZPass directly through their official website or log in to your account using your secure credentials.
Check your account balance and payment history through the E-ZPass website or mobile app. If you find any discrepancies, report them to E-ZPass immediately.
Remember, legitimate communication from E-ZPass will always come from a verified source, such as their official email address or phone number. Be cautious of messages that ask for immediate payment or contain suspicious links.
By taking these precautions, you can protect your E-ZPass account and avoid becoming a victim of this scam.
