Scam Description
First text message from 416-414-1218:
“Final reminder to settle your balance from your recent trip using the Texas Toll Roads. See now to avoid any additional late fee. tollbytxtag.org”
Second message a day later from 416-276-9296:
“?????????? ????????????????: ???????????? ???????????? ???????? ?????????????? ???????? ???????? ???????????? ???????? ???? ?????? ?????????? ???????? ??????????. ?????? ?????? ???? ?????????? ?????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????. link.gy/7c373”
I checked the actual txtag website with my license plate, and I do not owe any tolls. I did not click any links or reply to the scammer numbers. Their area code is from Canada and not Texas.
