Fraudsters are pretending to be a motorway operator, often e-flow, who manage the barrier-free tolling system on Dublin’s M50 motorway, and send text messages urging outstanding toll charges to be paid.

The text messages include website links that are not genuine and are an attempt to collect personal card and online banking details.
