Scam text message claims eFlow motorway users owe money for trips

Gardai are warning people to be vigilant over eFlow scam text messages and emails that claims they have an outstanding bill for travelling on motorways including the M50.

The eFlow service is used on motorways across the country including the M50, and the latest scam text or email tells users they owe money with a link to "pay" the amount owed. The message also threatens the recipient with penalty charges if the amount is not paid.

Gardai have warned that these eFlow texts and emails are "still catching people out" where they are clicking on the link. They are urging people to not click on these links, as it may give fraudsters access to their bank details.
