Heads-up to all Z-Pass Users!

Heads-up if you use E-ZPass in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, or beyond — don't be the next victim.

Officials say a text messaging scam is going around that instructs customers of tolling agencies, like E-ZPass, to enter personal and/or financial information on a bogus website.

According to a press release from the South Jersey Transportation Authority, which operates the Atlantic City Expressway,

Customers receiving text messages claiming to be sent by 'E-ZPass Toll Services' that directs them to click a link to pay an outstanding toll balance to avoid a late fee should be aware that this message is fraudulent. The toll account information provided in these texts is neither valid nor accurate.

Experts say if you get a suspicious text message, do not click on the link to even look at the website.
