Beware of Pennsylvania Turnpike scam text message

Don't fall victim to the scam targeting drivers in Pennsylvania.

A text messaging scheme asking drivers to pay outstanding tolls continues to take new forms.

Officials say various new versions have recently surfaced, including one impersonating a collection agency claiming to be authorized to work on behalf of the PA Turnpike.

They say if you receive a message, do not click on the link.

E-ZPass holders and pay-by-plate customers can go to the official PA Turnpike website to check their accounts.
