The Toll Roads and other legitimate California tolling agencies do not send text messages to non-accountholders, said the state Attorney General's Office.
Scammers have become skilled at imitating legitimate companies, sometimes even linking to legitimate websites. Text-based toll charge scams are prevalent right now.
I urge Californians to take practical steps to guard against being victimized by scammers, including visiting official websites only and talking to friends and family who may be unaware of these dangers.
If you receive a scammy text, do not click on the link and file a complaint with the FBI, FTC, and AG's office.
