Did you get a strange text claiming to be from the Illinois DMV, demanding money? It’s a trick, the Illinois Secretary of State’s Office says, with Alexi Giannoulias issuing an “urgent warning” about a new wave of threatening scam texts going out.

The unsolicited texts, which falsely claim to be from the Illinois Secretary of State or DMV, prompted the office to issue several messages about it this week, saying “scammers have recently escalated their tactics” with texts that look even more official with fake fines and regulations, deadlines or penalty dates.

“Many of the texts cite an upcoming enforcement date and list severe consequences to pressure recipients into acting quickly,” a press release from Giannoulias’ office said Tuesday. “These schemes are designed to create panic and trick individuals into surrendering money or personal information.”

One lucky Illinois Lottery player is a whole lot richer after they captured the jackpot in Monday’s Lotto drawing.

According to the Illinois Lottery, the ticket captured a jackpot worth $5.6 million in the Monday draw of the Lotto game, and the winner has not yet come forward.

Officials say the ticket was sold at Royals Liquor, located in Belleville, located just southeast of St. Louis.

“I got a call early this morning from a customer saying we sold the winning jackpot ticket,” said Bhavik Patel, co-owner of the store. “At first, I thought it was a prank—it can be hard to believe something like that over the phone. I checked the Lottery’s website and was shocked to see our store listed as the retailer that sold the winning ticket.”

The store will receive a 1% bonus from the sale of the winning ticket, which was the second-largest awarded in the Lotto game this year.

The winning ticket matched numbers 5-18-27-33-40-49 in the drawing, according to officials.

Lotto is drawn on Monday, Thursday and Saturday, and is an Illinois-only game. Tickets can be purchased at participating retailers or via the Lottery’s website and mobile app.
