SCAM ALERT: Fake E-ZPass Toll Payment Texts

⚠️ Scammers are impersonating E-ZPass, sending fake text messages claiming you have unpaid tolls. These messages contain fraudulent links designed to steal your personal and financial information.

How to Spot the Scam:

  • The message comes from an unknown number.
  • It contains urgent language, threatening penalties, or legal action.
  • The link looks suspicious or does not match the official E-ZPass website.
  • The message asks you to reply or take unusual actions to activate a link.

What to Do:

  • Block the caller, then delete and report it as junk to your service provider (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.).
  • Reach out to E-ZPass Customer Service at 1-800-333-TOLL to report the scam.
  • Log into your official E-ZPass account to verify any legitimate violations or unpaid tolls. Verify toll notices directly with E-ZPass before making any payments.
  • Review your E-ZPass account and credit card statements for any unusual activity.
  • Notify your financial institution and credit card companies about the potential scam involving your information.
  • Report the scam by filing a complaint with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center.
