Kansas Turnpike Authority warns of smishing scam using DriveKS toll payment system's name.

The Kansas Turnpike Authority (KTA) has warned about a smishing scam using the DriveKS toll payment system's name. Fraudulent texts claim recipients owe money to avoid fees, but KTA does not send unsolicited messages or charge such fees. The scam targets random phone numbers not linked to toll accounts. Customers are advised not to click on links in suspicious texts and to report them to the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center.
