PORTLAND, Ore. — The Oregon DMV issued a warning for drivers, saying scammers are still sending out fake text messages trying to steal money from people.

State DMV officials say it is part of a nationwide scam that’s been happening for nearly two years.

The fake text messages often come from international phone numbers or non-government email addresses.

In the messages, the scammers threaten to suspend car registration or driving privileges if a person doesn’t pay.

If you get this message, the DMV asks that you don’t click on any links or respond. Simply report it to the Federal Trade Commission or delete it.
