SCAM - unpaid parking tickets

Dear residents / pawb

 

Please be aware of SCAM messages to your mobile requesting urgent payment for an outstanding parking ticket.

 

A scam involving fake parking tickets is currently circulating via text messages. The messages claim you have an unpaid parking fine and include a link to a website that appears to be a genuine government site, but is actually a scam designed to steal your money and personal information.

 

  • Don't click on suspicious links
  • Be cautious of QR codes
  • Local authorities will never send you a text message asking for immediate payment of a parking fine. 

  • Be cautious of any links or websites that seem suspicious.

     

    I received this today, quite convincing, so take care and be vigilant!!
