The New York State Thruway Authority is warning E-ZPass customers about a phishing scam.
People have received bogus emails made to appear official stating that people have unpaid tolls.
“Please be advised this is not an authorized communication from E-ZPass, the New York State Thruway Authority or any other toll agency associated with E-ZPass,” the Thruway Authority said in a statement. “We advise you not to open or respond to such a message should you receive one.”
The bogus email includes a clickable link to download a supposed invoice. Do not click the link or respond to the email.
Anyone having questions about any correspondence can call customer service center at 800-333-8655.

I have been getting this for 2 months now and they have finally woken up and warned people. How incompetent.
