TxDOT warns customers of TxTag scam

TEXAS - The Texas Department of Transportation is warning drivers about a scam targeting toll customers.

TxDOT said scammers are sending texts claiming you have a balance or that your account is past due.

TxTag does communicate with customers via email, text and phone calls, but they said they will not send a message about final payment reminders.

Any text message will come from its "22498" number.

You can report any suspicious activity to TxTag customer service or on their website.
