MARION, Ind. (WISH) — Have you received a suspicious text from Indiana Toll Road asking to pay a bill to avoid late fees? Do not respond – they are messages from a new scam moving through northern Indiana.

The Grant County Sheriff’s Office on social media warned people who’ve received these texts not to respond or click associated with these texts.

The messages sent appear to be texts saying “Welcome to the Indiana Toll Road,” followed by a request to pay an unspecified balance before a set date to avoid late fees.

“Stay vigilant and protect yourself from scams,” the sheriff’s office said. “If you have responded, check your credit report, and if you have given money, reach out to us directly.”

Anyone who has received this text or given money to the scam can reach out to local law enforcement.
