Arkansans are being warned about a resurfacing text message scam posing as toll service providers. On Thursday, Attorney General Tim Griffin’s office alerted residents to fraudulent texts claiming recipients owe unpaid toll fees and directing them to a payment link.
However, Arkansas does not have toll roads, making the messages a clear scam. Griffin urges anyone who receives these texts not to send payment and to report the scam through the robocall reporting form on his website.
The scam, first seen in the state in 2024, is making a comeback. Authorities advise residents to remain cautious and avoid clicking on suspicious links.
