First, you will receive a supposed text from a fee agency stating that you owe unpaid fees and you need to pay it immediately. It will take you to a page that allows you to write your bank account information or a credit card account. If you click the link of payment, the deception may end with other personal information such as your driver's license number. Armed with your financial account information and the driver's license number, the fraudsters may not only steal your money, but they can also steal your identity.

FTC recommends that when you receive any texts from someone you do not know, never click on one link. The fraudsters try to make you act emotionally and respond quickly by providing certain threats. If you receive a text calling for suburbs at the threat of suspending your driver's license, you are more likely to pay instead of spending time in investigating the legitimacy of the text.

FTC also suggests that you use the "junk" option on your phone to report unwanted texts. Or you can redirect them to 7726 (random mail). Similar to what the FBI proposes, as soon as you register the exit and report unwanted text, delete it immediately. It should be noted that these warnings do not come from security analysts, but from government agencies such as the FBI and FTC.

Although this is called a new fraud by the government, it is just another fraud to hunt, as the text is written as if it came from the authority of a legitimate outcome. The problem is that sometimes the goal does not remember whether he has led to a specific condition and only decides to pay the required amount because it appears to be the easiest solution. Do not do this. The required amount may not be terrible, but the ultimate goal of the deception is to obtain banking information or verify your financial accounts.
