Nueva estafa en Oklahoma
Eviten la estafa del cobro de peaje atrasado
OKLAHOMA CITY.-El Procurador General Gentner Drummond está advirtiendo a los consumidores de Oklahoma sobre una nueva estafa en Oklahoma que involucra mensajes de texto sobre cargos de peaje atrasados.
Algunos residentes de Oklahoma han recibido mensajes que afirman que deben cargos de peaje vencidos junto con un enlace para hacer clic y pagar. Sin embargo, los mensajes fraudulentos son ataques de phishing diseñados para robar información personal.
"Estos estafadores no solo buscan su dinero; están detrás de tu identidad", dijo Drummond. "Se alienta a los residentes de Oklahoma a mantenerse alerta contra esta nueva estafa, así como contra todo tipo de estafas de phishing de identidad personal".
El FBI ha recibido más de 2,000 quejas sobre esquemas de texto de cobro de peajes en carreteras durante los últimos dos meses. Se sabe que la estafa se encuentra en al menos ocho estados, siendo Oklahoma el estado más reciente afectado por ella.
Para ayudar a detectar y evitar las estafas por mensajes de texto con cuotas vencidas, siga estos consejos de la Comisión Federal de Comercio:
• Tranquilo. No te apresures a hacer clic en los enlaces o responder al texto. Los estafadores quieren que las personas reaccionen rápidamente, pero es mejor detenerse y comprobarlo.
• Consulte con la agencia de peaje. Si le preocupa que el texto sea legítimo, consulte con la Autoridad de Autopistas de Oklahoma llamando al (800) 745-3727. No use los números de teléfono que figuran en el mensaje de texto.
• Denunciar mensajes de texto no deseados. Use la opción "reportar correo no deseado" de su teléfono para reportar el mensaje de texto o reenviarlo al 7726 (SPAM).
• No te involucres. Elimine el mensaje. Los mensajes no deseados a menudo conducen a estafas. Una vez que lo hayas comprobado y denunciado, elimina el mensaje de texto y no interactúes con el remitente.
Cualquier persona que crea que puede haber sido víctima de la estafa del cargo de peaje debe comunicarse con la Oficina del Fiscal General de Oklahoma al consumerprotection@oag.ok.gov o al 1-833-681-1895.

Attorney General Drummond warns consumers to avoid overdue toll charge scam
OKLAHOMA CITY .-Attorney General Gentner Drummond is warning Oklahoma consumers about a new scam in Oklahoma involving text messages about overdue toll charges.
Some Oklahomans have received messages claiming they owe past due toll charges along with a link to click and pay. However, the scam messages are phishing attacks designed to steal personal information.
"These scammers are not just after your money; they are after your identity," Drummond said. "Oklahomans are encouraged to stay alert against this new scam as well as all types of personal-identity phishing scams."
The FBI has received more than 2,000 complaints about toll road collection text schemes during the last two months. The scam is known to be in at least eight states, with Oklahoma being the most recent state affected by it.
To help spot and avoid overdue toll text scams, follow these tips from the Federal Trade Commission:
• Slow down. Don't rush to click on links or respond to the text. Scammers want people to react quickly, but it's best to stop and check it out.
• Check with the tolling agency. If you're worried the text is legitimate, check with the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority by calling (800) 745-3727. Do not use phone numbers listed in the text message.
• Report unwanted text messages. Use your phone's "report junk" option to report the text or forward it to 7726 (SPAM).
• Don't engage. Delete the message. Unwanted messages often lead to scams. Once you've checked it out and reported it, delete the text message and do not engage with the sender.
Anyone who believes they may have been victimized by the toll charge scam should contact the Office of the Oklahoma Attorney General at consumerprotection@oag.ok.gov or 1-833-681-1895.
