(KNZA)--Fake texts that appear to come from the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) and demand payment for tolls and tickets are continuing to be sent to the public.
KDOT says the texts sometimes threaten to have driver's licenses revoked or penalties for not paying promptly.
The agency, in a release says it does not collect money for tickets or tolls, and does not send unsolicited texts.
KDOT says do not click or open any links within these scam texts and never provide personal or financial details by clicking unknown links. Clicking on these links could expose your information to scammers
The release says you should delete the text and report it as junk.
