There I was earlier this morning, sitting at my desk in our Colorado Springs office when all of a sudden I got a text notification on my phone. The text read:
“E-ZPass final reminder: You have an outstanding toll.Your toll account balance is outstanding.If you fail to pay by March 28, 2025.you will face penalties or legal action. Now payment: [a link that goes to a website that starts with ‘ezpass’ and some other letters, followed by ‘.com’]”
I’m guessing many of the people reading this have gotten a similar text, as well, and like me, were left scratching their head trying to remember the last time they used a toll road. Do not click the link – this is a scam, and it’s been running rampant across the United States over recent days and weeks…
