Don't tap links in texts about unpaid tolls; check with the toll agency directly

Added

Scammers send texts posing as toll agencies that say you owe money and link to a fake payment page. Don't click or reply. If you're worried, contact the state's toll agency using a phone number or website you already know is real, then report and delete the text.

The result

Result: FTC: the link can steal card details and personal information like your driver's license number. Report junk texts in your messaging app or forward them to 7726 (SPAM).
