IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT FRAUDULENT TOLL COLLECTION TEXTS
The FBI has issued a warning to the public about a growing text phishing scam (known as “smishing”). Scammers are impersonating tolling authorities and stating recipients owe an outstanding toll amount. Recipients are directed to click a link to settle the balance and avoid late fees.
If you receive a text like this and want to verify if you owe a balance, please check your account online at https://www.houboltroadtolls.com/ or call Houbolt Road Extension customer service at 855-617-0817 weekdays between 8:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. CT.
The FBI is advising consumers not to click on the link and to delete the text. Fraudulent texts can be reported with the FBI’s Internet Crime Compliant Center (IC3) at www.ic3.gov.
