CONCORD — The New Hampshire Department of Transportation was advised of a smishing (SMS phishing) scam that is targeting New Hampshire residents with text messages requesting individuals to click on a link to settle outstanding toll amounts. NH E-ZPass will never send text messages requesting payment for tolls with late fees.

The texts appears to be from “NH- Pass” and center around urgent requests with your account that would result in a late fee if the balance does not get settled. DO NOT click on the link, it is not a legitimate website. Similar scams have been reported by toll agencies across the country over the past several months.
