RITBA Warns of Phishing Scam

The Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority is warning people about a phishing scam involving an e-mail being sent to customers warning them about being "in arrears for driving on a toll road."

The e-mail is circulating with the E-ZPass logo and states that "you have not paid for driving on a toll road. This invoice is sent repeatedly. please service your debt in the shortest possible time."

The e-mail includes a link that appears to lead to a site that attempts to collect personal information.

RITBA is advising people to delete the message without opening, responding or even downloading it. If you have any questions, visit the customer center at www.ezpassritba.com or call 1-877-743-9727.
