🚨 SCAM ALERT – FAKE TRAFFIC VIOLATION NOTICES 🚨

We have received reports of individuals receiving letters claiming to be from the “State of Massachusetts” regarding a traffic violation. These notices may look official and include details such as a case number, a hearing date, and even a QR code directing you to make a payment.

⚠️ Please Be Advised ⚠️

These notices are NOT legitimate.

Government agencies will not request payment via QR codes or unfamiliar links.

The document may list incorrect or generic information (such as fake judge names or vague violation details).

❗ What you should do... ❗

Do NOT scan the QR code or send any payment.

Do NOT provide personal or financial information.

✅ If you are unsure whether a citation is real, you can verify it by contacting the appropriate court or law enforcement agency using official contact information, not what is listed on the suspicious notice.

Please share this post to help protect others in our community.

If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
