That is not the format that would be sent by any local,state,or federal agency that is seeking back payment.

Hope no one bites on it.

Yea, it was pretty clear to me that it was a Phish attempt.

I deleted the link (and my email address) and forwarded it to my "all hands" email list as soon as I got it.

Thought you guys who have EZ Pass (or other road toll tag) would like to know it is out there.

Thanks for passing on this information Herk! I have EZ Pass as well but have it set up to automatically replenish when account gets "low".
I am always on the alert for email "scams" as well as phone "scams" and I've asked my Step-father not to pick up the phone if he doesn't recognize the caller and let it go to vm. As a result, he's become much more educated and not a victim. Can't stand "cheats & scammers"!
