Please be aware of the scam that is going around right now involving Wisconsin DMV regarding paying a traffic citation. It is coming in through text message. Please note that Law Enforcement will not send out text messages with links requesting payment for the citations. If you have received a text message, disregard it. If you do have an outstanding traffic citation, reach out to the agency to verify.
