Another scam to watch out for.

I'm here a lot

This one doesn't involve Rogers, and probably makes it rounds on all providers: 

The Body of the text says: 
ALERT UNPAID TICKET: Dear: *Phone number* 
We are contacting you regarding an UNPAID PARKING TICKET issued on *in my case*: on August 27th 2024" 
According to our records the ticket remains outstanding
For more information please visit our website at unresolved-ticket-transport.com (its not a hotlink, it just says what I typed in), even if it was a hotlink (clickable URL), it would still be a scam.

In BC, unresolved parking Tickets end up going to  ICBC, and get tacked onto our Insurance, being that I just bought a new vehicle a month ago, and had my insurance transferred over, without any parking tickets outstanding.  I've never had an outstanding parking ticket in 44 years of driving either.

Re: Another scam to watch out for.

Always happy to help.. I despise scammers, and if This stops one person from getting scammed, then its worth it.

I'm an advisor
I get ones for the 407 ETR at least a few times a month from different numbers every time. I don't even have a drivers license or vehicle. 😛 I just keep reporting and blocking them.

Re: Another scam to watch out for.

Blocking the number isn't going to do much. 90% of the time they are a spoofed number, if you call the number back, more often then not, you will get a recording that the number is no longer in service, or not an active number. Just keep reporting them
